3. You are to find three (3) articles that support the article’s position and three (3) articles that provide an alternative position to the target article. Articles that are acceptable for citation must be from scientific journals or scholarly texts (see sample references for formatting). Popular press and web site articles are not acceptable for reaction papers.

4. The paper should include: a) the article’s position; b) evidence supporting the article’s position; c) evidence for an alternative position; and d) what position you take and the evidence that convinced you to take that position. To enhance critical thinking, advance reasoning, and writing skills, your arguments must be based on empirical evidence and the scientific literature. Opinions and speculations should be kept to a minimum. Faith based arguments, such as the bible or god, are not acceptable arguments for your reaction papers.
