Week 3 Discussion Foundations -Benjamin Johnson

THIS IS ONLY AN INTERPRETATION, FIVE SENTENCES AND A QUESTION IS ALL I NEED. TELL ME YOUR THOUGHTS, HAVE REFERENCES

  • Suggest additional criteria for determining whether an article is peer-reviewed.
  • Offer an additional situation in which using a resource that is not peer-reviewed would be acceptable.In
    the library it is difficult to find peer review article, especially
    when you search a sort title such as ?Civil Laws?. Although there is an
    option on the Walden University Library website to select rather you
    want to search only peer review articles, it seems to give you articles
    that don?t coincide with the topic you?re looking for. Matt states that
    scholarly articles can come in all shapes and sizes depending on the
    subject being covered and the type of research being performed. For
    example, a scholarly article by an expert in the Humanities will write
    what is called a literature review, wherein they discuss a work of art
    (book, painting, etc ?) and their research will be based off of what
    previous experts have written about that piece. However, a scholarly
    article by an expert in a Science field may write about an experiment
    they have performed, and discuss their results and how it relates to
    previous research (Matt, 2011). The article I choose which is considered
    an academic journal title is ?Diversity, disparate impact, and
    discrimination pursuant to Title VII of US civil rights laws?. This
    particular article proved to be a peer reviewed article based on the
    purpose, findings and research of the journal. The disadvantages of peer
    review writings is that peer reviewers have not got an easy job
    spotting conflicts of interest, such as the source of a researcher?s
    funding, only that the research was followed to acceptable protocols
    (Shuttleworth, 2018). According to Shuttleworth there are no grading
    systems about the quality of the peer review. Different journals have
    different standards, and there is no way to know the expertise and
    quality of the reviewers or editor. In the past, less reputable journals
    generally had a smaller readership, but the internet has made them just
    as likely to be accessed and used. Shuttleworth also states that the
    advantages of peer reviews is that peer reviewing allows a diversity of
    opinions to be brought to the table, theoretically removing any personal
    biases and pre-set ideas from the equation. The peer review process
    stops a lot of substandard and poor science from reaching publication.
    In addition, the reviewers are generally experts in their field, well
    acquainted with the latest developments. They can, therefore, reject
    duplicate research and plagiarized papers (Shuttleworth, 2018).
