Unit VI Article Critique

Using the CSU Online Library, locate a scholarly article that discusses the emergence and impact of at least one

psychological paradigm discussed in your textbook. Why did this school of thought arise? Contrast it with at least three

other theories you learned about in your textbook (e.g., Rogers’ humanism, Jung’s analyses, Piaget’s schemata). Be sure

that at least one theory comes from the German contributions and that one comes from the American contributions to the

psychological paradigms.

Your essay should be a minimum of two pages in length; in addition to the two pages of content, include a title page and a

reference page. You are required to use your textbook and at least one other source.

Please consider the following as you compose your article critique:

The article should be clearly related to the course topics.

You should identify the significant points of the article, and explain how the article relates to the course concepts.

You should present a thorough analysis and strong argument to support your interpretation of the course concepts.

The organization of the paper should clearly present logically arranged points.

Your writing should be clear and concise with no spelling, grammatical, or punctuation errors.

The number of sources should meet or exceed the expressed assignment requirements, and the sources should be

peer-reviewed or academic in nature.

APA formatting guidelines should be used for reference entries and in-text citations
