It is divided into three main sections: First reading for overall credibility, second reading for argument and evidence analysis, and assessment of style and tone. The guide prompts readers with specific questions to identify the author's perspective, main points, supporting evidence quality, logical flow, and potential biases. It encourages readers to consider whose perspectives are omitted, what facts are missing, and the recency and relevance of evidence. The document also delves into analyzing the writer's language, tone, and use of examples to persuade readers. Ultimately, it aims to help readers make an overall assessment of the writing's convincingness, identify its strengths and weaknesses, and draw connections to other texts.",{"@graph":69,"@context":123},[70,84,106],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":40,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/study-skills-online-reading-questions-to-ask-while-reading-arguments/270565/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/study-skills-online-reading-questions-to-ask-while-reading-arguments/270565.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Quinn","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-28","2026-09-15",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":105},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",11,{"@type":107,"mainEntity":108},"FAQPage",[109,115,119],{"name":110,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":112},"What is the purpose of the first reading section in this guide?","Question",{"text":113,"@type":114},"The first reading focuses on establishing the overall credibility of the research article by considering the author's identity, approach, perspective, and the main points being made.
