The articles you select must be from peer-reviewed resources and must have been published within the past 5 years. If your topic is so recent that peer-reviewed literature has yet to be produced, search the business or learned press and professional literature.
You are expected to substantiate your critical analysis with citations from the articles you selected.
Note that—at the Doctoral level—you are expected to critically review and synthesize research rather than just stating your personal opinion.
