This book has given me a plethora of key terms that I will utilize in building my own research. For example, a dyad is a relationship between two parts such as a mother and a child or the relationship between siblings. Another term that was supplied within this text was de-identification which is the process in which children pick personalities to offset a sibling. For example, if one sibling is the fun one then the other sibling will be the serious one. Along with the excellent terms and logical overview of the dynamics of sibling bonds, this book has given me solid studies and bright individuals to view their research outcomes.

Additionally, the American Psychological Association is the leading scientific and professional organization representing psychology in the United States.

Furthermore, American Psychological Association’s goals are to advance the creation, communication and application of psychologicai knowledge to benefit society and improve people's lives.

The homepage tabs include publications and databases, psychological help center, news and events, sciences, education, and careers, to name a few. These tabs are the means in which its’ members gain great resources and contacts. For example, the publications and databases tab allow members and the public to access different types of research material such as scholarly article reviews. Another example, the news and events tab which once clicked reveals a hive of social and relevant news such as a recent press release and an upcoming conference. Overall, this website is an excellent source for members and non-members alike. The authors in this research article addresses the ineffective means in which studies have been performed on correlating, birth order and intelligence. Specifically, the authors draw attention to earlier studies that were based off the assumption that bigger families make low-IQ children. Additionally,Ramsey 6 the authors stress the differences in how an investigator interprets the information that is yielded. The research article calls to the difference between using cross-sectional data and with-in family data to support a causal link between birth order and intelligence. Cross-sectional data is data that compares one family to another whereas with-in family data thoroughly examines each aspect of each family member regarding other families. ‘The author's highlight the results using the cross-sectional data reflect that there is a causal link between birth order and intelligence. Contrary to that result, the with-in family data suggest there is little if zero correlation between birth order and intelligence. Regardless of the methods in which scientist utilize to evaluate the dynamics of family, there is no argument that sibling bonds and parent bonds contribute to a degree the influence on us.

In this scholarly journal titled, Theoretical Perspectives on Sibling Relationships, the authors attempt to arouse interest in sibling dynamics research and as a leader for future inquiries. Shawn Whiteman, Susan McHale, and Anna Soli are the authors for this scholarly journal. The authors apply four theoretical psychologically oriented perspectives to the dynamics of siblings mainly through the childhood and adolescence age frame due to the lack of research on the sibling bond as it ages. Psychoanalytic-evolutionary, social psychological, social learning, and family-ecological systems are the four perspectives the authors use. Psychoanalytic-evolutionary perspectives focus on species-typical patterns of behavior due to attachment and the survival function of social behavior. Social psychological perspectives look at how others influence one another and their motivations. Social learning perspectives suggest a gained behavior through observing others.

Given the great attributes this scholarly journal has provided me with, I will utilize it heavily in my research, Overall I am impressed with this piece. The use of thorough summaries really helped me get an understanding of what these articles were about. The only comments or concerns that I had were made in the comments above but just to briefly summarize some tips that I have, I will list them now. I think that for the website page you used, if you are only summarizing the website or organization ( im not sure which one you were analyzing), I would specify that in the sentence before going into the summary. I was kind of confused reading that one. Also this is minor, but there were a few grammatical errors that i commented on and you may want to double check because i may be wrong! But just something to be aware of. In the two sources that i commented on regarding the “usefulness” of the source, i would just elaborate a little more so you get fullRamsey 9 credit for that part of the assignment! Great job overall, I think that you have done a great job meeting all of the criteria for this assignment!
