5. Cite at least one other scholarly article in generating your argument. This source is NOT to be cited in your article summary. You must cite the Bechara et al. (1997) and our course textbook (Facione & Gittens, 2016) along with this secondary source.
6. Be mindful of grammar and writing mechanics. The paper should be a minimum of 800 words (this word count DOES NOT include your reference section or cover page), and meet the standards of APA style. You may find the attached template to be helpful in constructing an APA-styled paper.
