If you're looking for articles that discuss the use of the Freudian Oedipus Complex in today's psychology, for instance, here are some interesting ones that could send you in the right direction:

Note that most contemporary articles out there—and I say this without having gone through academic papers on JStor—more often than not question the very existence of the Oedipus Complex rather than try to prove that it actually exists.
Hope this helps!
