When I'm not working or at school I like to hang out with my friends. I live in a pretty small town so theres not much to do, most nights you'll find us driving out of town to go get food or to go find somewhere to hang out. I also LOVE to sleep, I sleep where ever and when ever I can. If I have even a a couple minutes of down time ill be passed out. Even I get a full 8 hours of sleep I'm always open to more. Now you're probably thinking, wow could this person get even more boring, yes I can. I also work a lot and I enjoy being there and doing my job. I work with a bunch of people that I've known since I was little, and I get to talk and meet new people everyday.

Im interested to see what wikipedia is actually like. My whole life I've always been told that its un reliable so I've never used it. I'm excited to look up biographies and science. Also theory's would be interesting so I can see different peoples point of views on things. I could see myself writing about medical advances and science, because thats the field i want to work in n the future.

Article Critique

Ever since I was little I've always been interested in theories and psychology. I took a lot of psychology classes in high school and plan on gaining into the medical field when i`m older. the Mendela effect has always been one of my one of my favorite theories. False memory is the story behind this theory and so I did some more research. I visited the false memory page on Wikipedia and I found three aspects worth commenting on: if there is anything left out of the article, if any of the links are dead, and if the article is up to date.

Is there anything left out of the article

While reviewing this article I started by looking to see if there was any information that could be added. As I was reading this article it was clear that it is caused by a traumatic event and often linked to PTSD. But as I was reading this I found nothing that could give me any reasoning as to the science behind why false memory happens. There was nothing to suggest what goes on in the brain to make it happen or even why it’s connected to the medical diagnoses that it is.

Are there any dead links

A lot of the times old articles have dead links and while I was checking the links all of the links followed to another acritical. None of the links were dead and all of them looked like they were backed up. The page on false memory all seemed fairly reliable and didn’t seem like it had a lot of bias opinions. Although this topic has a lot of controversies and different opinions (like most theories do) this one seems like it is backed up with clear evidence.

Was the article up to date

As I was reading, it was all up to date. Most of the links were from the previous 5 years and the information was all from new research. The research that was done was reliable and most of them were University studies. Also, there are a lot of recent theories and examples to show the effects of the idea of false memory. Lastly, there was a lot of links to back up the facts that were provided. If there was a study, there would be a link to the person who did the study of the university.
