  • Major Feature Additions!  
    • Live Searching. PEP searches while you enter your search terms helping you to specify and refine searches to make sure you get to the article(s) you are looking for with the the greatest efficiency and precision.
      • Word Wheel. As you type text in one of the search fields, words from articles that match what you've typed so far will be shown to you, and will continue to be refined as you type. This new feature will help you choose the best search terms.
      • Live Search Statistics.. Instant feedback on your search criteria! As you enter criteria in the search fields, the number of matching documents for each field will be instantly shown, to help you see whether you have chosen search terms which will best pinpoint the results you want. Further, when you specify multiple fields of words and phrases in context (as well as authors or titles), the number of matches the combinations of these fields produce will be instantly shown as well. This instant feedback will help to tell you when you've specified "enough" to find what you're looking for -- so you don't have to sift through a large number of results. It will also tell you when you haven't found a specific article, which part of your search may have been too limiting.
    • More Ways to Look at Statistics. We've added more criteria for filtering the statistic pages to let users limit results by author, journal, or title.
    • Compatibility with Mobile Devices. PEP has changed the page design to allow mobile device scolling to work in a more device friendly manner. Now works with Android devices including the Amazon Kindle Fire!
    • New Content Links to Publishers. For current articles only available as abstracts on PEP, we now support special direct links to the publishers where you can purchase subscriptions and reprints. This feature now includes links to Wiley journals, but now that the feature is in place, we will be gradually adding data to link to others as available.

PEP now has a Facebook fan page! Visit to show your support or post your comments and feedback on our wall.

Issues? If you are having difficulty clicking on the tabs on the left (e.g., it's taking you to p-e-p.org), it is likely because the site has changed significantly since you last visited. You need to do a "hard refresh" on the page. Sometimes that is Ctrl-F5; on the Mac in Safari hold shift while clicking the reload button. For info on how to do a hard refresh to bypass your cache, see this wikipedia article.

PEP Archive 1 Features!
What's on the PEP Tab?  [ + ]
  • What's New. The last six issues or books that have been added to PEP-WEB in the past month.
  • Most Popular Journal Articles. A short summary list of the most widely accessed articles (or book chapters) on PEP-WEB. Much more detailed statistics (including books) are available from a link (See full statistics...) at the bottom of the summary list.
  • Most Cited Journal Articles. A short summary of the most cited journal articles on PEP-WEB. Much more detailed statistics are available from a link (See full statistics...) at the bottom of the summary list. In the full statistics table, clicking on the number of ctations for a given article will show you a list of all articles which cited it during that time frame.
  • Downloadable Statistics. When See full statistics... is used to view the table of statistics for Most Cited and Most Popular, the table can be downloaded in an Excel compatible format by using the “Export” link (menu) on the menu bar just above the table.
What (and where) is the Consolidated Glossary?  [ + ]

The PEP Consolidated Psychoanalytic Glossary is a compilation of terms, definitions, and discussion from major published psychoanalytic glossaries. With the glossary, PEP has integrated several of the key Psychoanalytic glossaries into a new document. In this initial implementation, in addition to the Language of Psychoanalysis (Laplanche and Pontalis), PEP has integrated three additional glossaries: the Edinburgh International Encyclopaedia of Psychoanalysis (Skelton), Glossary of Psychoanalytic Terms and Concepts (Moore and Fine), and the Dictionary of Kleinian Thought (Hinshelwood). PEP has also integrated the EPF Glossary of Psychoanalysis in Europe (Junkers), which provides a mapping of each psychoanalytic term across several languages. See the PEP Consolidated Glossary Introduction for more info.

Terms from the glossary are hyperlinked from within articles in PEP. As you move your cursor over the text in any article terms will change color. A simple click brings up a pop-up window with the definitions and discussion from each of the glossaries together, providing a brief definition from the glossary sources in a single consolidated view. You can also click to open the complete consolidated glossary entry which has the complete content from all the sources.

The Glossary can be browsed directly by selecting PEP Consolidated Psychoanalytic Glossary from the "Glossaries and Dictionaries:" list in the Books Tab.

How do I download the PEP Bibliography?  [ + ]

The new PEP Bibliography download feature allows you to download a database of bibliographic data for the articles that appear in PEP. The format is REFER, which can be imported into EndNote and other bibliography managers. The list is refreshed within 30 days after each major release of PEP (e.g., A1v9, A1v10, etc.)

To access this feature, click the new option "Download PEP Bibliography", at the bottom of the PEP-WEB window.

What about the tablets and mobile devices?  [ + ]

PEP-Web now works very well with popular tablets such as the iPad and the Kindle fire, and with the mobile devices we've tested. But we can't test them all...please let us know if you run into problems.

Is there more HELP available?  [ + ]

To get more detailed help, click "Help" at the bottom of the PEP-WEB window. Note that the help pages are currently being updated and may not reflect the most recent look of PEP-WEB.

How to Use PEP-WEB (click for more info)  [ + ]

Click on the Journals or Books Tab on the left for a full list of the PEP-WEB content.

Browsing by Journal and Volume. Click on the Journal tab to the left. You will see a complete list of journals available. Next, click on the journal you want to browse, and you'll see a list of volumes and corresponding years for that journal. Lastly, click on the volume, and you'll get a complete Table of Contents for that volume. Click on the article to read that article. While reading the article, you will be in the Document Tab and the left browsing list will not be shown. To get back to the browsing mode, click the Contents Tab at the top

Browsing Books. Click on the Books Tab to the left. You will see a complete list of books available. Next, click on the book you want to access, and it will open in the main Document Tab. If you are not a subscriber, or you are not logged in, you will only see the very beginning of the book. To get back to the browsing mode, click the Home Tab at the top.

Searching. The Search Tab on the left can be used to search the FULL TEXT of all the content on PEP-WEB, including both PEP Archive and PEP Current Content (2009 and newer). The search is FREE: you don't need to login to search or read abstracts and summaries of books and articles, or the first few paragraphs when an abstract isn't available.

Help! To get more detailed help, click "Help" at the bottom of the PEP-WEB window. (Note that the help pages are currently being updated and may not reflect the most recent look of PEP-WEB.)

What can I Access?

Everyone can search and browse. Everyone has access to the tables of contents, the abstracts (or first few paragraphs if there isn't an abstract). In other words, if you don't have a subscription, you can browse and perform full text search of the entire archive, but only the abstracts or first 1000 characters or so of the article will be accessible.

PEP Archive subscribers can view the complete text of journal volumes through 2008 (as available) and all books. To view the complete text of the articles, you must be logged in. If you see "Logout" to the left of the Home Tab then the system has recognized and authenticated your rights. If you see the text "Login", click it to authenticate or for further information as to how to sign in.

24 hour pass available. If you are not yet a subscriber but need instant access, PEP now offers a low cost 24 hour pass to all the journals in the archive (through 2008). Note that this does not include access to the books. Please see: http://www.p-e-p.org/24_hour.htm.

PEP Current Content (2009 - present) is always searchable, but access is limited. If you are a PEP Archive subscriber only, you will not be able to read articles after 2008, which are part of PEP Current Content. The PEP Archive contains books and articles through the end of 2008. Current Content volumes are those afterwards. Click here for more information on PEP Current Content.
