Option 1

[edit]
Emotional intelligence
Article Evaluation
Article gives an effective overview of the topic towards the beginning and logically breaks down each of the concepts related to the main topic. However, it could go to more detail about the general effects of emotional intelligence since the research that has been done on it is endless. In addition to that, it is written from a slight bias by not going into depth about the research claiming that emotional intelligence is inaccurate or misleading.

Option 2

[edit]
Propaganda
Article Evaluation
This article could have a more effective overview of propaganda specifically by inserting the way it has been used throughout history and the perceived effects of propaganda and its audience. Specifically, the way certain propaganda techniques from certain groups effects the people who watch them. However, the article does break down most aspects of propaganda pretty well and go into depth about them.

Option 3

[edit]

Disinformation

Article Evaluation
Provides an effective overview of the main topic and goes into depth about the usage of disinformation throughout history and the different ways it has been used. However, it does not go into enough depth about the effects of disinformation. It focuses mainly on the political aspects of disinformation and uses the 2016 US election as an example of how disinformation changed the political landscape. It also could expand more on the research section of disinformation.
