Q. Where can I find journal articles on sex offenders and civil confinement?

Try searching Sage Premier database and Ebscohost's Legal Collection database like this: sex offen* AND ("civil confinement" or "civil commitment").

Using the * after "offen" will find sex offender(s), sex offense(s), etc. Using quotes around "civil confinement" will search it as a phrase. Limit your search to full-text only to find citations which have a link to the complete article.
