How do you know it’s not a column, letter, or editorial? Give proof.
First off, I know it is not a column because it is not a recurring piece of writing that has been included in a newspaper or article, this is an original writing.

The first thing I did was type in Sports Psychology of course they gave me all different articles relating to that and I didn’t really find any of them that interesting. None of the articles really grabbed my attention and they didn’t have the right amount of detail I was hoping to …show more content…
Does the information contain any emotionally charged words or phrases? GIve examples and justify their use. If no, state an example that characterizes the non-biased nature of the source. (Note: emotion is an undesirable trait in this kind of sources. There are condition where it is acceptable.)
Yes this article is filled with emotional phrases, but the one I found wasn’t very emotional it was “interesting” and it was located in the paragraph talking about “hitting the wall”. You could say that hitting the wall is a physiological response to an aversive situation that requires physical activity. It is when the runners hit that physical and mental exhaust button and they feel like they can’t do it anymore. So the sentence that I found said that “elite runners used more associative cognitive strategies, referring to thoughts or behaviors that related to "paying attention to the body and the physical factors critical to performance" while amateur athletes used more dissociative strategies, "characterized as a type of self-hypnosis in which runners purposely try to cut themselves off from the sensory feedback they would normally receive from their body during the
