Which article are you evaluating?

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article since it is a topic I am interested in and am starting to explore it for my research. It matters because it is a form of gender-based violence that is still hidden from public awareness and affects many women around the world. My preliminary impression of it is that it gives a brief context of what obstetric violence encompasses in Brazil, but seems to lack depth and content.

Evaluate the article
Content:

''Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?'' Yes, everything seemed relevant and nothing distracted me.

''Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?'' There is a lot of information missing in terms of what can be characterized as obstetric violence and new legislation that could be added.

''Can you identify any notable equity gaps? Does the article underrepresent or misrepresent historically marginalized populations?'' The article doesn't elaborate on intersectionality, which is one of the most important aspects of obstetric violence since it largely affects marginalized groups.

What else could be improved? There could be more definitions of the concept and a wider debate on the history of the debate in Brazil.

Tone:

''Is the article neutral? Are there any claims that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?'' It does seem neutral, focusing more on a medical approach and not a preference or ideological debate.

Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented? No.

Sources:

''Check a few citations. Do the links work? Does the source support the claims in the article?'' Yes.

''Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?'' They all seem to come from reliable references and neutral sources.

Do the sources come from a diverse array of authors and publications? Yes, also from different countries and contexts.
