Gale's Topic Finder helps you visualize connections between search terms and topics and view relevant articles for those topics. This tool takes the titles, subjects, and approximately the first 100 words from a subset of your top results and feeds them into an algorithm. Keywords shown in the graphics are those found most often in the text with your search term. For Tiles Visualization, the bigger the tile and the darker the color represents, the more significant words and subjects for your Search Terms. For Wheel Visualization, the inner larger wedges represent the more significant subjects or Search Terms. The outer and expandable spokes represent specific topics or documents containing that subject or term.
Let’s take a look at one of the results in our search. As you can see below, we can see the OVERVIEW, PREMIUM CONTENT OPTIONS (Material Types), and clickable CONTENT HEADERS. The OVERVIEW provides an easy-to-understand summary of the health issue or condition. By clicking the CONTENT HEADERS additional content is available. At the bottom of each CONTENT BOX by clicking VIEW ALL the full result list for that Material Type is available.
