This site is trustworthy because it is on the Columbia University website and used for educational purposes (T). This site has a good objective because it is most likely there for students to read and to teach kids because it is a University run website (O). This site has enough information for you to use and learn about the differences between male and female brains (E). Although this information was first put up/last edited in 1996, because it is a University website they most likely would have changed it if there would have been updates on it, which there obviously hasn't because the University hasn't edited it since then so the information is current. (C). This information is accurate because it is run by a University and they use it to teach students (A). The purpose of this website is to inform people on the differences between male and female brains (P).
T-It is trustworthy because this info. comes from the University Of Pennsylvania Medical Center .
O-It is objective because it's conveying info. by comparing and contrasting men and woman's brains.
E-It has enough info. and even more sources linked.
C-It is current because this info is retrieved in September 16, 2009.

I used this website because all the information is trustworthy and accurate. It was created by University of California, so the objective is obviously good and not opinionated whatsoever. The information is up to date and useful, the information was last edited in 2007. The website lists both qualitative and quantitative data. They include statistics and other resources. The information is accurate because they performed experiments and recorded actual data. They also show other sources that back up their information. The website's purpose is to share the university's knowledge about the differences in male and female brains.
This site is trustworthy because it gives daily news on science and has a separate section for "Mind & Brain" meaning it probably has a lot of reliable information on the topic. I know it has objective because it includes a lot of data showing and it compares information from both sides. It has enough information on the topic because it has an entire tab on the mind and brain with many articles and research on the topic. The article was posted in March of 2008 so I know it's generally current. The sight has accurate information because it is written by people who are educated on the topics it includes. Its purpose is to give you current information on the differences between men and women and their brains.

I got it off of the MICDS Library database (t), (o) it fallows the objective that you asked us to do, (e) It is very informative and useful (c) It was created in 9/14/2009 (a) Accurate because it is on a database which means it is accurate etc.(p) its purpose is to inform me.
I chose this website because it seamed trustworthy, it gave scientific explanations that stuck to the objective and made sense to me. There was enough a considerable amount of information but there wasn't too much that made it confusing. The date was written Friday, July 2008. This is very current as opposed to other web sites that are from 2003 and 04. I know this information is accurate because the site mentions many intellectual people and or places in the field of science (Harvard University, Centre for the Neurobiology...ect.) The purpose is simply to inform the researcher the differences between the male and female brain.
Trustworthy Objective Enough Current Accurate Purpose
I believe this site fits all the categories of toecap. It is very trusthworthy because it was written by a doctor who has expertise in this field. The object of this article was to educate the masses about brain size and function in men and women. There are many paragraphs and a lot of information concerning the topic. It was posted August 27, 2007 so it is therefore current. It is accurate and specific to the subject, and it has a purpose.

I chose this site for multiple reasons. This site listed an author and it also showed a bibliography with many sources. The author of the source has a doctorate in neurophysiology. He is the chairman of medical informatics and adjunct professor at the Faculty of Medical Sciences of the State University of Campinas, in Campinas, Brazil; associate editor and chairman of the editorial board of "Brain & Mind" Magazine. The author gives an email address where one could contact him. The article is obviously well researched and is written by an author who has vast experience in this field of science. The author also shows sites where you can go to find more information. The article is not written to advertise or sell any product. The author is only putting the information out there to inform other people about the differences between male and female brains. This is why i chose this site.
