Note: A few of have asked me

Question: "Ms. Ruiz can we google any article that rocked the world of psychology?"

Answer: NO.

Well, yes, you can research psychology and other subjects that interest you. I certainly encourage reading. 

However, FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT READ ONLY THE 10 ARTICLES I PROVIDED LINKS FOR. SEE THE BEGINNING OF THIS POST.

Thanks for asking the question. If you have further questions please ask me via email.
