Credibility Of Claims And Sources: Article Analysis

This article contains three sections – describing three options – on how to, as the title says, “Evaluate the Credibility of Claims and Sources”.
Section one describes assessing the source of the claim, pointing out how trust evolves throughout our cognitive development, as well as going in depth with the term “authority” and “expertise”.
Section two illustrates assessing what seems to be the context and tone of the claim, such as whether there are any ulterior motives behind it, whether it is self-contradictory, and whether it involves any bias.
Lastly, section three teaches us how to independently verify the claim by disconfirming or confirming it ourselves. If neither of those work, the article suggests suspending our judgement.
