Critical and Creative Thinking posts should NOT summarize the articles
(what’s critical or creative about summarizing?).
Critical and Creative Thinking posts should discuss some subset of the
following: (1) propose a new experiment that critiques the conclusions in the
article and fills a gap in our current knowledge by designing a new experiment
that either investigates an alternative explanation of the results or investigates

ideas at the intersection across articles by combining methods and paradigms
across articles (2) propose novel extensions or applications, including policy
implications not addressed in the paper.
Be civil when critiquing an article, and make a good-faith effort to
understand the authors’ reasoning. Keep in mind that authors typically
address criticisms at the end of an article, often to the reader’s satisfaction…so
make sure to get that far before diving into your response post. Additionally,
criticisms that could apply to the vast majority of psychological studies
(e.g., the sample size is less than a hundred gazillion, the sample was not
nationally representative, etc.) will not receive credit. Instead, your response
posts should focus on unique theoretical and empirical aspects of the papers.
Finally, although it is important to maintain a critical eye when reading
scientific papers, some of the best discussion comments will be insightfully
positive in nature. We are not trying to be critical of article for the sake of
eviscerating the article, but rather to constructively build on the article.
Feel free to arrange a meeting if you are unclear on how to approach response
posts. Responses will be graded on a 5-point scale:
5 – demonstrates a superior understanding of the material; poses clear,
insightful; commentary is well-reasoned and theoretically sound; discussion
goes well beyond what’s stated in the articles
4 – demonstrates an excellent understanding of the material; poses good
questions; commentary might be developed further; discussion reflects some
effort to go beyond what’s stated in the articles
3 – demonstrates a satisfactory understanding of the material; poses questions
for discussion, but questions are not fully elaborated; commentary is not clearly
theoretically grounded; response is mostly a summary of the material in the
articles
2 – demonstrates an understanding of the material that is less than satisfactory;
poses questions that are vague or otherwise ill-explained; response is a
summary of the material in the articles
1 – demonstrates an understanding of the material that is unsatisfactory; shows
little attempt to generate questions for discussion; response is not clearly written
and does not go beyond the discussion in the articles
As will become apparent as you make your way through the weekly readings,
psychology is a cumulative science; a single article may cite the findings and
ideas of 10, 20, or even 50 earlier articles. For your posts, you will need to draw
upon existing research to inform and lend credibility to your arguments and cite

these references using APA style formatting. In doing so, you should adhere to
two rules:
1) Always cite the source of a finding or idea that isn’t your own, no matter
how much rewording you have done.
2) Always put the findings and ideas you cite into your own words. Do not
directly quote from articles.
