Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I found this article from a wikiproject of women in psychology. I chose this because as a psychology major, I am interested in advancing the work women have done in the field. Women in science are often ignored so it is important to highlight their contributions. Overall, the article is relatively short and not much detailed is provided.

While the lead section is concise, it may need a little more information of what her contributions to the field were. The lead section does not provide a description of what the main sections of the article are. The content seems up to date and addresses a gap in that women's contributions to the field of science are often overlooked. The overall tone is very neutral and states the facts without providing opinion or persuasion. The article is relatively well written in terms of grammar and spelling and is organized into different sections however there is a lack of detail in explaining her research other than just one of her projects. The article contains no imagery. Since this article discusses a person, it could be helpful to provide a picture of Marion Underwood. The section titled "Blackberry Project" needs more detail about the study and what the main findings and takeaways were. However, the article does have a good amount of quality resources. The talk page contains relatively little conversation and edits. Overall, the article is not very complete and could use some more edits to provide a better review of Marion's contributions to the field of social aggression. However, the section listing her work, including articles and books she has published, is important in highlighting her academic achievements and providing links for interested readers.
