Psychology assignment 2297

  In the Week 1 Presenting Arguments assignment, you objectively and neutrally evaluated reasoning on each side of your question from non-scholarly sources. For this assignment, you will objectively and neutrally evaluate and present the reasoning from scholarly sources on the same question. For an example of how to complete this paper, take a look at the Week Three Example paper (in the classroom). Be sure to incorporate any relevant feedback you got from the instructor on your first paper. Conduct research from scholarly sources on each side of your issue and write a paper that includes the following: Introduction (approximately 100 words) Explain your topic and state the specific question that you are addressing. Presentation of an Argument Describe the scholarly source on one side of the issue. Summarize the key points made. (approximately 100 words) Present what you see as the main argument from that source in standard form with the premises listed above the conclusion. (approximately 100 words) Evaluate the quality of the reasoning in this source. You may address questions such as how adequately the article supports the premises with research and how strongly the premises of the argument support the truth of the conclusion.

(approximately 100 words) Present what you see as the main argument from that source in standard form, with the premises listed above the conclusion.
