Hi, I see that you have chosen this artice for your class assignment. That's a tough job. There usually are very few sources about an academic journal (as opposed to thousands of articles citing articles that appeared in the journal). Generally, all that can be done is following the instructions of our journal article writing guide and be done in an hour max... But perhaps you have sources that I am not aware of. Good luck anyway! --Randykitty (talk) 10:43, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
Ali's Peer Review[edit]
Hi Michelle,
Firstly, I commend you for quickly recognizing that the introduction to the article was plagiarism. I really like where you are headed with this article. The way you explained latent learning was clear and concise, and easy to understand. You really seem to have a grasp of your subject.
However, this edit was rather short, so I would like to see more since you mentioned that there where multiple areas of the article that could be improved. Also, the classroom page on wikiedu has you assigned to the article "Neurobiology of Aging," so I was wondering if that is what you are adding to or if you're working on the "Latent Learning" article. And as you already mentioned, I think updating the studies mentioned in the article would help too. This would obviously make the article more relevant, especially since one focus of looking at research in psychology is its recency.
Overall, your edits look good so far and you seem to be on the right track.
