popular publication
Assignment Guidelines:
Take your article from a popular publication such as Time, Newsweek, US News and World Report, etc. You can look for a story from the APA at http://www.apa.org/news/psycport/, to begin your search.
The article must have been published within the past year.
Do not use an Internet blog, a professional journal, or newspaper article. These sources are likely either too brief or too complex for this assignment.
Look for a thorough article that is written for the general public.
Ensure that your article relates to psychology and one of the subjects covered in the course (If you are not sure, refer to the table of contents of your text).
Make sure that the article has sufficient depth and breadth (enough content and specific information) to allow a thorough critique.
Critiques of the article must include the following:
Identify and articulate the key issue(s) in the article. Identify information/evidence in the article that supports its point of view and/or conclusions.
Analyze both the student’s and the author’s assumptions regarding the article’s point of view and/or conclusions.
