Essay 3 Work Cited

Ferguson. "Memory and Consciousness - Lecture Notes." Welcome to Utah State University. Web.27 Oct. 2010. http://www.usu.edu/psycho101/lectures/chp9memory/memory.htm#5.
  • If I were rewriting this paper, I would use this source because of it's credibility. It was written by a professor of psychology from Utah State University, so I know that the information is not only accessible online but also taught in a class. If the information is taught in a class, you can be pretty sure that it's good information.
Jellison, Jenny. "Psych 101." Waynesburg University. Waynesburg, PA. 15 Oct. 2010. Lecture.
  • This source was found by chance. I visited my friend at Waynesburg University a few weeks ago for a long weekend and had the opportunity to sit in her Psych 101 class. That also happened to be the day that the professor was teaching about memory and used examples that fit very well in my paper. I would use this lucky source again.
"Memory Encoding." The Human Memory. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 Oct 2010. http://www.human-memory.net/processes_encoding.html.
  • This source, and those that follow from the same site, were my most questionable sources. There wasn't a listed author and their citations included other commercial sites. If I could find the same information on a different, more credible site, I would opt out to use that one instead.
"Memory Storage." The Human Memory. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 Oct 2010. http://www.human-memory.net/processes_storage.html.
  • same as above
"Memory Recall." The Human Memory. N.p., n.d. Web. 20 Oct 2010. http://www.human-memory.net/processes_recall.html.
  • same as above
  • Coming from the Gale Encyclopedia, I would use this source again. This source was found using a research engine provided by the FCC library.

Wagner, M. "The History of the Gene Encoding Receptor." International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology. (2008): 1163-1167. Print
  • Being a printed journal, I would use this source again because most of the risks of web sources aren't applicable.
