Article critique/evaluation

Description

Instructions:

Write your evaluation in the Word document provided (Critique 1 answer sheet). You can insert the cursor after each question, and type in your answers. Use full sentences and indent paragraphs, to describe each point. Double-space all writing; number pages. The writing style is part of your grade, so spend some time editing your work.
Provide rationales for your decisions (citing sources). For example, if you write that the theory framework is strong, describe how it is strong with at least one citation (Author, year) to a theory book, research book, or article. You are welcome to use the textbook for this source for strong research.
List all sources at the end of the answer sheet, following APA format for a reference list. Remember to cite the article you are evaluating at least once in the text, and put it in the reference list as well.
Remember to type your NAME at the top of the answer sheet to get credit for it!
