These are the Geographic Cluster Terms as they appeared in the 8th edition (1997) of the Thesaurus of Psychological Index Terms. This is the Thesaurus used by the PsycFirst and PsycInfo databases. Please note that many countries have changed names since 1997, so you may need to update this list accordingly. For example, if you wanted to search for studies conducted in Russia, you would search for both the current name of the country "Russia," as well as the old name "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics."
