Week 11 Assignment: SEARCH

Purpose

To assess your ability to describe the SEARCH formula.

Overview

Schick and Vaughn in their book, How to Think About Weird Things: Critical Thinking For a New Age, have developed a step-by-step procedure called the SEARCH formula for evaluating extraordinary claims. This procedure is a tool used to reveal problematic hypotheses (claims) and works to arrive at supportable conclusions.

Action Items

1. Review this week's key points, readings, and videos.
2. In a Microsoft Word document, write about the following:
1. Examine the hypothesis that palm reading is an accurate predictor of one's future with the SEARCH formula, including the criteria of adequacy.
2. Draw conclusions about the hypothesis: Is it problematic? Is it scientific? Why or why not?
3. Prepare your assignment for submission:

1. Make sure to follow APA format, which requires in-text citations for all borrowed information as well as a list of references.
2. Submit your paper to Turnitin.com for review.
3. Review your Originality Report from Turnitin.com and make appropriate changes to your paper.
4. Proofread your assignment carefully. Improper English grammar, sentence structure,
   punctuation, or spelling will result in some point deductions.
