Critical review of an article | Homework Writing
Im trying to learn for my Psychology class and Im stuck. Can you help?
The purpose of this essay is to get you thinking critically about the literature. We are all conditioned to think that anything we see in print can be trusted. However, taking a critical stance help us to avoid relying on untrustworthy sources and can help us to nuance our own thoughts about the ideas we read about. You will find that critiquing somebody elses work will not only help you to understand and appreciate that persons work better but will also help you become a better critic of your own work.

Your review must include: a short overview of the reviewed paper (about 1 page), interpretation of an example (which is NOT in the article) using the author(s) approach (about 1 page), and strength(s) and weakness(es) of the author(s) approach in the paper (about 1 page).
Your essay should be three to five pages in length, one inch margins on all sides, double-spaced, 12 pt font. Be sure to include a separate cover sheet(this is NOT included in the 3-5 pages)
