Support your position from your course reading or other academic journals. (Do not use Wikipedia.) You do not need to have a Reference section for course texts, but please cite them if you use them (i.e., Kail & Cavanaugh, 2019). However, if you use another source, please include a Reference section in case your classmates would like to locate the source and read further.
