Identify which publication matches your last name/family name. Read as much description of the publication that you can--no need to read entire thing! Try to answer all 4 questions--just start typing in the "Add Comment" box. This is anonymous :)

Scholarly Article

I feel like this could be used in a research paper at pace depending on what it was about but the author seems very knowledgable on this it would just depend on what we are writing about.

I think the author is trying to reach whoever is interested in Fan fiction, it seems like an article geared toward the benefit of writers and there creative process.

Yes the author does sight others through out the article providing professional opinions

P-T Article

2023-11-13 23:26:37 UTC

This seems to be a scholarly article or report.

This source could be used as an acceptable source in a research paper because it has a ".gov" url.

I think the author is trying to reach young adults who are going to be future voters.

There does not look like there are any links or citations on this page but they might be on the actual paper itself which is linked at the bottom.

U-Z Article

2023-11-13 23:27:47 UTC

The type of source is a Scholarly Article.
Yes, this is an acceptable source of information for a research paper at Pace. I say this because it is not biased it the author gives opinions on both sides of the #MeToo Movement.
The audience the author is trying to reach is people who support and do not support the #MeToo Movement.
Yes, the author provides multiple links to other sources that supports the piece. There is more than enough support being presented in the article.

Responding to Harper's Bazaar

HARPER'S BAZAAR is a fashion magazine. You wouldn't want to use a fashion magazine's article as a source for your research paper. The author is trying to reach female voters. This article provides sources very sparingly. They linked a poll that supported their argument. I think for the fashion magazine it is, they sufficiently provided sources.
