Welcome to the world of academic writing. Please use the Castille, Buckner, and Thoroughgood (2018) article and the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (7th ed.) to address the following questions.

1. Clearly identify the type of article. That is, is the article a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods article? Explain your answer.
2. Ethical, legal, and professional standards are important. Do the article’s authors appear to uphold ethical, legal and professional standards—why or why not? Were the rights of the human subjects involved in the research upheld? If so, in what ways?
3. What are the main sections of an academic paper and does the Castille et al. (2018) article contain these sections? If so, which ones?
4. What is bias-free language? Do the authors of the Castille et al. (2018) article use bias-free language? Why or why not?
