To find out if an article is considered peer-reviewed, check the Ulrich's database by doing a search for the title of the journal.  If a journal is peer-reviewed, the Ulrich's database will say it is 'Refereed' (another term for peer-reviewed). Many library research databases have a checkbox to limit the results to articles published in scholarly/academic as well as peer-reviewed journals. Keep in mind that refereed/peer-reviewed journals are a subset of scholarly journals.  In other words, not all scholarly journals are refereed/peer-reviewed.
