To be able to perform a cited reference search, ensure that you are searching the Web of Science Core Collection. You can select it from the drop-down database menu at the top of the page.

Select "cited reference search" from the drop-down menu above the search box.

Review the list of citing articles to find out if the newer article from the assignment is present. You may have to review multiple pages of results.

If the newer article is not one of the citing articles, then you will have to locate a linking article. To do so, try to find an article on the same topic as the newer article.

To determine the topic of a citing article, you can read a summary of its contents by clicking "view abstract."

To find out if an article on a relevant subject has cited the newer article, click on the number next to "times cited."
0:02:58
Repeat the process (clicking the number next to times cited, scanning citing articles to see if newer article is present) until you have linked forward to the newer article. This may require trial and error. You may encounter dead ends and have to retrace your steps and try a new article.
