A Google search using the term “cults” resulted in 4.35 million hits. I scanned the first three
pages of links and observed that there were at least ten websites that could potentially be used
in my project after assessing their credibility. An EbscoHost Basic search of Academic Search
Premier using the same term resulted in nearly 4400 hits, of which at least three on the first
page appeared to be potentially useful for my literature review.
I have concluded that there are enough information resources available to meet the
requirements for the literature review project, which specifies that at least nine credible
information resources must be reviewed, analyzed and reported.

Milestone #2 (Week 2)
Short Article Analysis (35 points). From your Week 1 work you will know where to find articles
about your chosen topic. Retrieve full texts of three of these articles including at least one from
EBSCOHost in the DeVry Online Library. The article contents are the data for your Week 2
homework.
Note 1: You must assess the website-based articles for credibility and there is a link to an article
explaining how to do this in Webliography.
Note2: This assignment will eventually become the part of your final literature review. Your
References Cited section will grow as your project proceeds.
