Evaluate the article
In my opinion this is a great article. The first sentence provides a basic definition of the topic, and the first paragraph goes slightly deeper. The article was clear and was organized very well. This article uses headings and subsections to keep things clear, and this was very helpful. The author kept a neutral tone. The author provided facts, and at the end of the article even discussed the criticism of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Even in this section, the author provided information to represent both sides of the argument. The references used in this article seem to be pretty well balanced. Both older references and newer references were used. The images used in this article are fairly bland, and I believe the article would benefit from making the images larger. The font in the pyramid is fairly hard to read. I feel that this article is pretty well developed and accurately describes Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
