Article Selection
Please list articles that you're considering for your Wikipedia assignment below. Begin to critique these articles and find relevant sources.

Option 1

 * Article title
 * Behavioral Strategy
 * Article Evaluation

The article simply contains the definition of a behavioral strategy. No information is provided regarding current research or the impact of behavioral strategy on the work place environment. There is no feed back on the "Talk" page. The article can be improved by including research from psychology, human resources, and economics.


 * Sources - The original article has no sources but provides external links.
 * External Links:
 * Behavioral Economics The Behavioral Economics Guide
 * Behavioral Finance Overview of Behavioral Finance

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Dislocated worker funding
 * Article Evaluation

The article provides a brief description of dislocated worker funding. It has two references to two different statements and internal links to other documents. The article fails to present any specific instances of states who have qualified for the grants or the impact it has on the economy. Ways to improve the article include providing research based articles on the effectiveness of the program and states who have used the grants. Additionally, the introductory paragraph does not do the best to grab the reader's attention.

Option 3

 * Article title
 * Performance-linked incentives


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article gives a brief definition of performance linked incentives. The author built an outline with hyperlinks to each section, however there are no citations indicating where the information is derived from.  The author compares performance linked incentives to other types of payment for work and explains the difference but does not cite any sources to define the definitions.  Hyperlinks are provided for several words within the article to other Wikipedia articles.  There have been no contributions on the talk page for improvements to the article.  The article could be improved by providing more thorough definitions of each type of incentive to work, discussing which incentive appears to work best for improving the performance of employees based on current and past research, and present any data charts with research based information regarding the effectiveness of performance-linked incentives.


 * Sources
 * The article provides no sources for review. This section would require additional attention.  The article provided an external link to one article:
