Sample(Different topic):
Etchells, Pete. “Zombies, Cognitive Dissonance and You.” The Guardian. Guardian News
and Media Limited, 31 Oct. 2013. Web. 9 Mar. 2015.
This article connects killing zombies with cognitive dissonance, a social psychology concept which refers to two conflicting beliefs come together at the same time that you will have to deal with. Etchells considers one’s mental situation of facing a zombie’s attack and to kill it is immediate because he or she is dealing with the conflicting beliefs of killing is wrong and killing as self-defense that happen at the same time. He stresses that one should solve such belief disagreement so there will not be a hassle during a real zombie apocalypse. This piece uses common and casual vocabularies and terms which makes it easily understandable for the public. This article is also highly accessible on the Internet and therefore the general public is the main audience of this article. Instead of looking into the concept of cognitive dissonance in a deeper manner, Etchells gives rather direct and factual information on what connects zombie killing and cognitive dissonance, so the article itself is not really analytical and debatable enough to be argued. However, this article offers a new psychological concept that would be useful for further investigation on the research paper.
