The Dreyfus Affair became a metaphor for antisemitism and, in one of the most unlikely and ironic sequence of events in Jewish history, Dreyfus (1859-1935), a wholly assimilated Jew, played a critical, if unintended, role in the rebirth of the State of Israel.
After French Intelligence had intercepted the “Bordereau,” a secret military document sent to the German military attaché (1894), Eduard Drumont, founder of the antisemitic daily La Libre Parole, published a report accusing Dreyfus, the only Jewish member of the French General Staff, of spying for Germany. Major Joseph Henry forged documents implicating Dreyfus and, after a secret trial, Dreyfus was convicted of treason (December 21, 1894) and sentenced to life imprisonment on Devil’s Island. He was paraded through the streets of Paris to mob jeers of “Death to the Jews” and was stripped of his sword in a humiliating public ceremony. Intelligence later seized a letter written by Major Ferdinand Esterhazy which clearly established that Esterhazy, not Dreyfus, was the German agent, but the French government quashed this evidence and Esterhazy was acquitted.
On January 13, 1898, Emile Zola (1840-1902), perhaps most famous 19th century French author, published the most legendary open letter in history, his famous J’Accuse!, in which he accused the government and the military with conspiracy and malicious libel against Dreyfus. (Zola escaped to England after being convicted of libel for writing J’Accuse!) Antisemitic riots broke out throughout France and the Dreyfus Affair became a major public issue. In 1898, the case was reopened and Henry’s forgeries were detected; nevertheless, Dreyfus was again found guilty (September 9, 1899) and was sentenced to five years in prison. This second miscarriage of justice evoked international condemnation and, finally, Dreyfus was pardoned by President Emile Lubet (1906).
The Dreyfus Affair made a powerful impact on the outlook of world Jewry. In particular, Herzl’s confidence in liberalism, badly shaken when he personally witnessed Dreyfus’s disgrace, led him to the Zionist Idea. Jews everywhere realized that if such hatred of Jews could occur in France, the so-called “homeland of liberty,” against a wholly assimilated Jew, then Jews couldn’t be safe anywhere and assimilation was no defense against antisemitism.


Drumont financed La Libre Parole from the proceeds of the publication of his magnum opus, La France Juive (“Jewish France,”1886), which provided his readers with a unified synthesis of antisemitic history. A Voltairean who later became a devout Catholic, he was uniquely able to draw on both Church tradition and the secular Enlightenment in expounding on the “Jewish plot” to dominate France; in promoting the blood libel and the Jewish poisoning of wells; in justifying the Spanish Inquisition as Christianity’s right to protect itself against Jewish treason; and in characterizing the French Emancipation of 1791 as a grievous error and arguing for the exclusion of Jews from society. La France Juive became one of the greatest commercial successes of the 19th century, selling over 100,000 copies in its first year, an almost unimaginable triumph at the time and evidencing his keen understanding of the tenor of the time. Drumont attracted many supporters, and he was one of the primary sources of antisemitic ideas that would later be embraced by Nazism.

Drumont paper token: Verso: Long live Drumont, down with the Jews.”
In this classically antisemitic May 22, 1897 correspondence, Drumont writes from Paris:
What would you like me to write in the album? One date: May 22, 1897… when this album will be studied in a few years, public opinion will undoubtedly change as the result of the work of my colleagues and myself. They will know then, too late I am afraid, that we acted out of affection for our country. We tried to protect our forefathers’ faith, in the land of our forefathers, the purity of the racial line of our forefathers against the Semites [i.e., the Jews] – the invaders and greedy money-chasing people who sought only to harm an innocent and too confident nation that accepted as brothers its merciless enemies.
Drumont’s downfall began when he made the Rothschilds and their banking family a frequent target of his antisemitic diatribes. He was sued by a vice president of the Chamber of Deputies, who had libelously alleged that the VP had taken a bribe from Édouard Alphonse de Rothschild to enact particular legislation favored by Rothschild; unable to provide any evidence to support his allegations, Drumont was incarcerated for three months, fined, and ordered to publish a retraction. Thereafter, his fortunes declined, and he died in obscurity and penury.

Ferdinand Esterhazy (1847-1923), a French traitor who served as a spy for Germany, was the perpetrator of the crime for which Dreyfus had been wrongly accused and convicted. Born in Paris, he was orphaned at an early age after some schooling at the Lycée Bonaparte. After unaccountably disappearing from public notice (1865), he was later found engaged in the Roman legion in the service of the Pope (1869) and, upon entering the French Foreign Legion as an ensign (1870), he began calling himself “Count Esterhazy.” There being a dearth of officers after the French catastrophe in the Sudan, Esterhazy’s military advancement was unusually rapid: lieutenant (1874); captain (1880); decorated officer (1882) – as a member of the Intelligence Department, he inserted in the official records a citation of his grand “exploits in war,” which were later discovered to be false – and major (1892). After the war with Germany, he was employed as a German translator at the Intelligence Office.
Back in Paris, an irresponsible Esterhazy squandered his small fortune and was desperate after having failed to retrieve his fortune in gambling houses and on the stock exchange. In 1892, when the Libre Parole published a series of articles regarding the “preponderance of the Jewish element” in the French army, Captain Crémieu-Foa, a Jewish officer in the French cavalry, challenged Drumont, to a duel and inflicted a slight wound upon him. Esterhazy, who had served as Crémieu-Foa’s second in the duel, pretended that this “chivalrous” role had earned him the enmity of his family and supporters and thus obtained – through, ironically, Zadoc Kahn, the chief rabbi of France – financial assistance from the Rothschilds. Nonetheless, he continued as an ardent supporter of the editors of La Libre Parole.
Notwithstanding a successful military career, he nevertheless considered himself wronged, and he spoke against the entire French army, and even against France herself, for which he predicted and hoped for new disasters. Such a man, lacking even the slightest spark of patriotism, was destined to become the prey of treason and, indeed, he became a paid German spy. Initially, pretending that he received information from Major Henry (who had been his comrade in the French military counter-intelligence section), Esterhazy furnished some interesting information about the artillery, but his information was such that he must have had other informants (who were not necessarily his accomplices.)
Nonetheless, Esterhazy’s information soon became of little importance to the Germans, and the difficulties he endured in getting information were very apparent from the very text of the Bordereau, which was used to incriminate Dreyfus. After Esterhazy was exposed by Colonel Picquart as the true author of the Bordereau, he was forced to undergo a trial behind closed doors by French Military Justice (January 10-11, 1898), where he was unexpectedly acquitted. He fled to the relative safety of Great Britain (September 1898), where he remained for the rest of his life.

Esterhazy’s July 2, 1898 correspondence.
In this July 2, 1898 correspondence, Esterhazy, in deep financial straits, writes:
My dear Emmanuel, In the middle of the painful ordeals I have been enduring for almost nine months and in which, I think, I have plumbed the depths of human cowardice, I have not forgotten your friendship from the first day and the debt I owe to you. You probably know about the separation with my wife, which caused me great pain and great troubles. My wife [ ] with her houses, and the court ruling returned her property and its management back to her, but I am waiting and, yes, I beg you, very confidentially, because I have hidden it from everyone, I am waiting for the end of the Zola trials on the 18th of this month in Versailles… I will reimburse you… You can count on it…
Esterhazy was a compulsive gambler, habitual liar, and a crook who women found entrancing. He liked to pick them up in first-class compartments in trains, and it was on a fateful passage from Le Havre to Paris that he met and won Marguerite Pays, the paramour who helped him forge documents in the Dreyfus Affair. Esterhazy’s wife – whom he described as a “spendthrift” and “ninny” – divorced him in 1899. She had stood bravely by him, but he repaid her with neglect, abuse, and flagrant unfaithfulness. Matters reached a crisis when Esterhazy sought to introduce his young daughter to Marguerite, a gratuitous insult which stung Madame to the point where she decided to air her grievances in court, which led to the odious airing in Paris of their notorious domestic relations, as the divorce action brought as much ignominy upon the Commandant as the Dreyfus Affair itself.
The tribunal in the divorce case assigned temporary custody of the children to their mother and ordered Esterhazy to pay 600 francs a month in alimony for the duration of the lawsuit. Esterhazy’s poverty was so dire that, in a letter to his divorced wife, he wrote that he had had nothing to eat for two days. One of the key charges in the Zola trial was that Zola had defamed Esterhazy by claiming that his court-martial (in which he was fully exonerated of any wrongdoing) was fixed and, as we see from our letter, Esterhazy hoped that the damages he would be awarded in that case would relieve his of his economic duress and permit repayment of the loan he was seeking. In fact, Zola was fined 3,000 francs but, with his appeal pending, he escaped France for England.

When, through the Bordereau, French military intelligence became aware in September 1894 of a spy within the army, Armand du Paty de Clam (1853-1916), a devout antisemitic Catholic loyalist and a major with the French General Staff, became deeply involved in the investigation to identify the traitor, due principally to his alleged “expertise” in handwriting analysis, although he was only – at best – an amateur. A brief three-week investigation identified approximately six suspects, but the pompous and patrician du Paty de Clam decided that the Jew Dreyfus was the criminal.
On October 15, 1894, du Paty de Clam effected an ambush of Dreyfus by summoning him to a meeting also attended by two civilian police detectives and a French military intelligence officer, during which he faked an injury to his writing hand, asked a bewildered Dreyfus to take dictation, and proceeded to dictate the precise words written in the Bordereau. After comparing Dreyfus’s writing through the lens of unadulterated antisemitic animus, he ignored warnings from professional handwriting experts – including a conclusion from Alfred Gobert, a leading expert and graphologist for the Bank of France, that “there were numerous and important disparities that had to be taken into account” – and announced that Dreyfus had written the Bordereau. He charged the Jewish officer with high treason and offered him the “honorable” way out: he gave him a revolver with a single bullet in the chamber. When Dreyfus proclaimed his innocence and refused to take his own life, he was transferred to Major Henry who, according to plan, had been waiting in an adjacent room.

The focus of the miscarriage of justice against Dreyfus has always been upon the fraudulently-obtained Dreyfus handwriting sample, but it may have been du Paty de Clam’s bogus telegram that was outcome determinative in Dreyfus’s conviction by the tribunal. In any event, du Paty de Clam was later promoted to lieutenant-colonel for his “excellent work” in the Dreyfus prosecution and conviction.

In this June 2, 1909 correspondence on his infantry letterhead – notwithstanding the fact that he had been earlier discharged from the military – du Paty de Clam writes regarding a letter he had submitted to Le Siecle, a French newspaper published from 1836-1932.
I would be grateful if you could have a search made to find out if the “Siecle” has published a letter from me in one of the issues after last May 27. Receive, sir, my sincere greetings…

Auguste Mercier (1833-1921), the French Minister of War, was one of the great villains of the Dreyfus Affair; in his famous J’Accuse, Zola accused him of “having made himself an accomplice in one of the greatest crimes in history, probably because of a weak mind.” Mercier was the first public Dreyfus accuser (November 28, 1894); he arrested Dreyfus and coordinated the anti-Dreyfusards throughout the entire Affair; he masterminded the creation of the sham secret dossier handed furtively to the judges in the first Dreyfus court-martial to influence their decision; and even after he was no longer Minister (as of January 24, 1895), he directed the witnesses for the prosecution at the Rennes trial. He gave virulent and perjured testimony against Dreyfus at every trial in the matter and, though he was only a witness, he sought to act as prosecutor by introducing evidence on his own; he (unsuccessfully) attempted to blackmail Dreyfus’s lawyer, Labori, by alleging that he has a letter from Esterhazy compromising Labori’s daughter; and he remained an implacable foe of Dreyfus, even after the Jewish officer was pardoned.
When the Dreyfus mater first came to Mercier’s attention, he initially felt that all the evidence had been concocted, and he knew that Dreyfus could not have masterminded such a deception. However, he was under significant pressure from the press and the army, which now stood to redeem the honor it lost in the miserable defeat by convicting the spy responsible for it. The day before he was to decide if the evidence against Dreyfus warranted a trial, Mercier re-examined the evidence and, once again, had his doubts; however, the next day, there appeared in one of the leading papers in Paris that Mercier was in the pay of the Jews and therefore would not order the trial. To exonerate himself from that accusation, he threw Dreyfus to the wolves and ordered the trial; declared that the evidence against Dreyfus was beyond doubt and that his guilt was certain; and publicly and vociferously alleged that Dreyfus had committed “treason.”
Dreyfus’s conviction based only upon the secret file set up another problem: Mercier was the one who had approved submission of the file, which meant that the army had approved it; were there to be a second trial where Dreyfus would be acquitted, the army would stand exposed for its perfidy and French pride would be devastated. Indeed, Dreyfus would be tried a second time, and there would be other trials against Dreyfus supporters until as late as 1906; however, in none of these trials was the “secret file” allowed to be seen by the defendants and their attorneys, as the French authorities claimed that the honor of France was at stake.
Testifying in 1904 before the Court of Cassation (French for “the Court of Abrogation,” the highest court of criminal and civil appeals in France with the power to quash decision of the lower courts), Mercier again perjured himself by denying the existence of a document written by a foreign sovereign implicating Dreyfus. However, in 1906, speaking of the secret dossier given to the court martial, public prosecutor Baudoin evoked a “monstrous violation of the inalienable rights of the defense” and emphasized Mercier’s responsibility in preventing the disclosure of the dossier. Nonetheless, Mercier remained the hero of the anti-Dreyfusards and he kept his seat in the Senate until January 1920.

Mercier’s 1906 correspondence.
In this November 2, 1906 correspondence on his Senate letterhead, Mercier writes:
I thank you for your kind words, which gladdened me. I will come to your house today between 2:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m. In the event that I do not find you there, I will leave this there tomorrow at the same time, unless you advise otherwise. As far as the Henry subscription, I think it is appropriate to put Mrs. Henry in possession of what remains of the money as soon as possible. We could therefore, if you agree, convene the Commission “La Libre Parole” on Wednesday afternoon (both the Senate and the House in session) next week at the time that will suit you. Please accept, Sir, the expression of my most sympathetic feelings.
Henry, the forger of the Bordereau that launched the entire Dreyfus Affair, was found dead in his cell on the morning of August 31, 1898 and, although no razor was found, his death was declared a suicide. Our correspondence refers to Drumont’s La Libre Parole’s sponsor of a public subscription for Henry’s widow, in which the donors were invited to vent all their anger against Jews.

MY FIRST SUCCESSFUL SYNTHESIS!
I keep typing, deleting, and retyping this post bc I'm too excited to be coherent snhjsksn
I synthesized an aluminate doped with some lanthanides; after all the previous failed syntheses I didn't really expect this one to work out either, but when we irradiated my sample with UV light, it started glowing blue which is exactly what we wanted! The glow is faint but my sample was tiny (as you can see on the left). The green glow is from somebody else's sample.
It wasn't an experimental synthesis, so it's not like we're making a paper out of it haha but the fact I managed to successfully recreate a synthesis is priceless to me :)
#i ran out of the room to grab my lab partner#and i was like IT GLOWS IT GLOWS#and she was like WHAT#and dropped everything she was doing to run take a look with me ahaha#mine#studyblr#chemblr#studyspo#study motivation#internship tag#op

Notes, because they're lingering in my head: I found another paper by an incredibly thorough and well-spoken team in Germany also trying to accomplish the same characterization. They managed to synthesize the mineral, but say that the current literature is essentially switched: the cubic structure forms at the high-temp phase, and won't revert back to tetragonal. Which, if this is true, means we need to do a low-temp synthesis method and also thoroughly characterize the natural mineral from different locales to understand the correlation between what's happening in nature and what's happening in the lab.
We're putting the current samples that look good on the microprobe to get a quantitative analysis, but that won't actually tell us if the crystal structure is right, which bothers me deeply.
Also, they did their synthesis based on a 1:1:x metal to sulfur ratio. Because our sulfur is platy, I've been basing the ratio on that too, but I've been losing iron in the quartz mortar. If I grind the sulfur first so it's all a powder, that will give correct ratios to everything else, but it won't be mixed properly. Worth testing though, because I trust the ratio more.

Lewisite (L) (A-243) is an organoarsenic compound. It was once manufactured in the U.S., Japan, Germany[2] and the Soviet Union[3] for use as a chemical weapon, acting as a vesicant (blister agent) and lung irritant. Although the substance is colorless and odorless in its pure form, impure samples of lewisite are a yellow, brown, violet-black, green, or amber oily liquid with a distinctive odor that has been described as similar to geraniums.[4][5][6]
Apart from deliberately injuring and killing people, lewisite has no commercial, industrial, or scientific applications.[7] In a 1959 paper regarding the development of a batch process for lewisite synthesis, Gordon Jarman of the United States Army Chemical Warfare Laboratories said:
The manufacture can be one of the easiest and most economical in the metal-organic field, and it is regretted that no one has ever found any use for the compound. It is a pity to waste such a neat process.[7]
Lewisite is a suicide inhibitor of the E3 component of pyruvate dehydrogenase. As an efficient method to produce ATP, pyruvate dehydrogenase is involved in the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA. The latter subsequently enters the TCA cycle. Peripheral nervous system pathology usually arises from Lewisite exposure as the nervous system essentially relies on glucose as its only catabolic fuel.[10]
In biochemistry, suicide inhibition, also known as suicide inactivation or mechanism-based inhibition, is an irreversible form of enzyme inhibition that occurs when an enzyme binds a substrate analog and forms an irreversible complex with it through a covalent bond during the normal catalysis reaction. The inhibitor binds to the active site where it is modified by the enzyme to produce a reactive group that reacts irreversibly to form a stable inhibitor-enzyme complex
Pyruvate dehydrogenase is usually encountered as a component, referred to as E1, of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC). PDC consists of other enzymes, referred to as E2 and E3. Collectively E1-E3 transform pyruvate, NAD+, coenzyme A into acetyl-CoA, CO2, and NADH. The conversion is crucial because acetyl-CoA may then be used in the citric acid cycle to carry out cellular respiration.[2]
it stops your cells from performing cellular respiration! by permanently breaking the enzymes! so fucked!

So, I have thoughts about this post about a study done on the literacy of US college English majors.
First, though, a preface:
The original post (and the addition in the reblog I linked) is superlative. OP did a fantastic job talking about the complexities of literacy education and what the study itself means. I don't disagree with anything OP said.
Yes, I read the entire paper on the study.
I have never taken a post-secondary English class, because I took IB English in high school and it satisfied the English 101 requirement for my undergrad degrees. However, I have (almost) two MAs in a humanities-related field, so I understand the importance of reading comprehension to a good education and building life skills.
I agree with the general conclusions of the study in that I find it concerning that English majors struggle this much with a text like this, and also in that I agree that good literacy supports good lives, regardless of whether people read Dickens.
I am a trained teacher with an Education degree. I was trained to teach music and drama classes. I never worked professionally as a teacher outside of my student teaching, but I have a decent grasp of pedagogy. Specifically, I was trained in how to teach students how to read and perform music and theater scripts. Music, especially, is a form of language that everyone knows a little bit about, but most people do not know formally.
Ok, now that that's out of the way, there are two main things I want to say.
Thing One: On Synthesis
The study does not specify whether the students were given the chance to read the sample passage in its entirety prior to their analysis. From what the paper says, my best guess is that they were not given this chance during the allotted 20 minutes that were recorded, but rather that they were interrupted frequently during reading and prompted to provide explanation. There was no mention made in the paper of controlling for participants based on whether they had read the passage prior to the experiment, but no participant was noted as already being familiar with the passage.
Now, one thing I know about pedagogy is that a very popular approach to teaching any text is the approach of "Synthesis-Analysis-Synthesis." What this means is that the text should be taken in as a whole (or at least in large chunks) before being analyzed so that a general overall understanding may be formed as a basis for said analysis. The size of the chunks varies based on what you're trying to analyze, but a "big picture" perspective is a where analysis starts in this approach. Then, once analysis has been done, the text is revisited as a whole with a complete understanding of it.
This can happen with all texts. With beginner musicians, a recording of a new piece of music is played while students follow along (silently) with their sheet music. With more advanced students, a sight-read play-through is done before practicing any given section or part of a piece. With theater, students read through a script in its entirety, sometimes while watching a (usually filmed) production of the play, before they do anything else.
The fact that the students in this study were (apparently) not given the chance to read the passage in its entirety prior to explaining it is, in my opinion, neglecting a variable that could greatly impact the results of the study. It is my hypothesis that, were students given a chance to read the whole excerpt prior to being asked to explain it, they would be much more successful in their explanations.
This is because context is an important part of understanding a text. Now, I feel it's fair to say that English majors in a US college in 2015 should have a decent understanding of the context of a Dickens novel, but the initial synthesis that students were ostensibly not permitted in this study would have laid out enough context that I hypothesize, again, that their explanations of the text would be much more fulsome and accurate with it.
Thing Two: On Commentary
Now, I'm not a literature person, but the way I've learned to do textual analysis is to answer three questions:
What does the text say?
What does the text mean?
What does the text do?
These three questions are distinct, and answering each type involves the use of a different skill. Describing what the text says involves the skill of being able to paraphrase language to demonstrate literal understanding. Describing what the text means involves performing an analysis to demonstrate non-literal understanding. Describing what the text does involves performing a commentary to demonstrate meta-understanding.
(These are not "technical" terms that I pulled from a pedagogy textbook, but rather they are based on my own experience with scholarly textual analysis. There are other approaches to textual analysis (I assume), but this one is the one that has consistently satisfied my various teachers when I try to demonstrate my understanding of a text.)
The study does not expressly use this framework, but it does specify which levels of understanding it expects from proficient readers: the first two. The study prioritizes literal understanding of the text as a baseline, then considers non-literal understanding an extension of that. When it comes to commentary, though, the study actively derides it as an insufficient substitute for literal and non-literal understanding.
This hierarchy leaves me concerned. Analysis is not a direct extension of literal understanding. For example, were the passage of Bleak House from the study represented visually, an audience would not have to know what a High Chancellor is in order to potentially recognize the iconography of his attire that marks him as A Powerful Man. An analysis can be performed non-literally.
Similarly, a commentary is not an insufficient substitute for either literal or non-literal understanding. The study participant quoted as explaining that the excerpt is "setting the scene" for the action of the novel is expressing understanding of an important element of the text.
Now, this gets into some big questions, like what literacy actually is, but it is my opinion that knowing, stating, and justifying the elements of textual understanding that the study was looking for would make for a better study.
In Conclusion
There are a lot of things to consider when evaluating literacy levels, and this study does a reasonably good job, but I believe this process could be further refined in ways that would non-trivially impact findings.

Abstract Developing a researchable question is one of the challenging tasks a researcher encounters when initiating a project. In current clinical practice, both unanswered issues or when experiences dictate alternative therapies may provoke an investigator to formulate a clinical research question. This paper describes PICO (population, intervention, control, and outcomes) criteria in framing a research question. Finally, it assesses the characteristics of a peer-reviewed article on urinary tract infections. Part 1 EBM, shorthand for Evidence-Based Medicine, is a core aspect of the medical profession. EBM provides statistical analyses and matters of clinical concern. It is based on research, reading, analysis, and combining many papers generated within the medical fraternity. EBM applications based on research evidence and clinical knowledge and reviews of the system go a long way in improving clinical decisions. Usually, the PICO guideline is applied in developing a comprehensive, focused definition of clinical concern. In such a system, clinical problems are broken into four parts, i.e., the P: patient/problem; I; intervention; C: comparison; O: outcome (Yuan et al., 2019). PICO is a framework for creating an effective clinical research question before commencing research. PICO is. A Mnemonic applied in the description of a sound foreground question in clinical studies. Such a question must identify the population or the patient targeted in the study, the intervention measures intended, how each intervention compares with another where applicable, and results expected. The PICO process begins with a case scenario, which helps formulate the research question. The question must relate closely to the case scenario and be designed to help find an answer. After a question is formed properly, the researcher is placed in a better situation to run studies and dig into the available literature for evidence that will anchor their PICO question (Eriksen & Frandsen, 2018). Although there are other models, including SPIDER, SPICE, sample, design evaluation, and the phenomenon of interest, PICO is the most commonly applied technique in formulating research questions. PICO is used because of three advantages, i.e., i. it directs the questioner to concentrate on only what the patient believes to be the most significant matter and outcome, ii. It provides a platform for the next step, which is a computerized search. It does so by alerting the questioner to choose the keywords to be used in the search process, and iii. It directs the person asking to point out the problem, the intervention measure, and outcomes linked to the care extended to the patient (Eriksen & Frandsen, 2018). The PICO framework encourages designing clinical questions based on the four categories of clinical data: i. the population referred to by the question, ii. The intervention used in the population, iii. the comparison criteria and iv. the results of the measure. Systematic review guidelines recommend PICO is creating strategies for search. Many modern systemic reviews rely on PICO for searches. Although PICO is often used to create the search strategy, it isn't utilized by the primary retrieval system running the strategy (Scells et al., 2017). The PICO model is equally applied in structuring clinical questions concerning the synthesis of evidence, such as systematic reviews. PICO helps in ensuring that the relevant aspects of the research question are addressed. Therapy questions inform PICO. While it can be used to create research questions associated with a diagnosis or prognosis, it is not suitable for certain clinical data requirements. Apart from being used as a tool for developing concepts for research and clinical questions, the model can be applied to develop search (Eriksen & Frandsen, 2018). Considine et al. (2017) PICO should also be used for creating search terms related to the PICO question, Medical Subject Headings, and other relevant terms. It has been established in recent days that different review terms call for different question forms. It further points out that model and topic fits cannot be retailored. In other words, if a research question excluded intervention measures, then the other elements of the PICO will not apply. PICO question Is ibuprofen more successful than paracetamol in relieving fever in children? Part 2 Basmaci, R., Vazouras, K., Bielicki, J., Folgori, L., Hsia, Y., Zaoutis, T., &Sharland, M. (2017). Urinary tract infection antibiotic trial study design: a systematic review. Pediatrics, 140(6). How the selection of the article was made A systematic review was done based on the recommended Meta-Analyses guidelines and the Preferred Reporting Items for systematic reviews. Medline, Cochrane, and Embase central databases from 2015 to 2020, October were used for the search. Medical subject terms and free text for "urinary tract infections" were used, including 'clinical trials" "therapeutics" in children aged amid 0 and 18 years. The search was limited to the period from 2015 and after. The period's choice was based on the view that earlier reporting was not complete because there was no standardized reporting framework. There was no language restriction used. The search used randomized trials in which antibiotic efficacy and antibacterial agents in children with acute UTI were noted. The research does not include 1) studies in which focus was exclusive on clinical infection symptoms such as UTI that is not complicated, lower UTI, cystitis, recurrent UTI, and UTI that arises because of pathogens that are inconsistent s outlined by FDS guidance such as viral, parasitic, fungal or STIs; 2) studies that incorporated patients presenting underlying conditions such as diabetes, spinal cord injury UTIs among others, and 3) Studies which only focused on antibiotic prophylaxis pharmacokinetics, long term endpoints or safety as a result of lack of treatment evidence efficacies on infection resolution. The search incorporated trials on a wide range of infections when specific information on the "pyelonephritis," "complicated UTI," or" febrile UTI" results could be pointed out. The inclusion of studies was done only if there was information related to age. We described children as those between age 0 and 18 years, plus neonates (Basmaci et al., 2017). This review article is systematic. It focuses on a specified clinical concern, does a complete literature review rules out studies that were done poorly, and tries to recommend practice based on flawless studies. Systematic reviews only incorporate qualitative or experimental studies and usually use randomized control trials. How this is a peer-reviewed article A systematic review primarily offers a complete summary of scholarly literature relevant to a given research topic or question. An expert panel usually crafts such a review after considering information from published and unpublished studies. Since it is comprehensive, it is distinct from traditional literature reviews, limited in scope regarding the amount of research evidence. Such evidence is also typically presented from the perspective of a single author. Systematic reviews are a brainchild of the biomedical fraternity and now form evidence-based Testing and Evidence-Based Behavioral Practice. Systematic reviews incorporate the steps below. A systematic review starts with deconstructing the research question using population, comparator, intervention, and outcome. These elements constitute the foundation for search algorithms. A protocol is generated to describe definitions, search strategy, search strings, exclusion, and inclusion synthesis approach. The protocol is piloted, and peers are reviewed. Such a step may trigger revising the search strategy. The next step is to run a systematic search. Information is retrieved from websites of institutions and academic databases. All the studies unearthed at this point are included. However, after that, the studies retrieved are subjected to screening to determine whether they are relevant to the title, abstract, and complete text using predefined exclusion and inclusion criteria. Several researchers conduct the screening process because it is voluminous. All researchers may screen the same studies and compare outcomes (Fu, & Hughey, 2019; Strnadová& Walmsley, 2018). The last stage involves extracting qualitative and quantitative data that is relevant to synthesize the evidence provided. Sometimes, a meta-analysis is done for comparing quantitative and qualitative outcomes. There is always peer review at various stages for systematic reviews. Systematic reviews are also registered with various networks from research such as the Campbell Collaboration and Cochrane. Registering reviews help reduce bias, cut down on duplication of the efforts various groups make in research and keep the systematic reviews updated. Registration also avails libraries for ongoing systematic reviews. Although most of the systematic reviews use the outlined steps, some reviews referred to in this paper employed a level of flexibility by complying with the tenets of the systematic review approach (rigor, transparency, and replicability) while still readjusting the protocol when and as needed, even after the piloting stage (Fu,& Hughey, 2019; Strnadová& Walmsley, 2018). There are two main types of systematic reviews. There are the ones on overviews and interventions of observational data, and those on genetic data meta-analyses, which form the greater proportion. It is possible to conduct systematic reviews when there multiple related studies and a need, to sum up, the research outcomes available from the various articles to come up with the best possible evidence. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews evidence are regarded as the best in guiding clinicians to make decisions and policies in healthcare (Misra& Agarwal, 2018). A systematic review is thorough, can be replicated, and transparent. It is applied in many healthcare settings to direct management, decision-making, and evidence-based practice policies. A detailed protocol guides systematic reviews. It has definite exclusion and inclusion criteria to guarantee a comprehensive review of the literature targeted. Protocols for review are shared and commonly published as peer-reviewed pieces before undertaking the review to encourage critiquing and subsequent suggestions. Systematic reviews are effective in synthesizing knowledge on an empirical issue by analyzing data from a broad range of sources. The study question at hand is methodological and theoretical, but not empirical. However, with broad-based literature sources, a systematic review is effective and thorough (Belcher et al., 2016). Importance of peer-reviewed versus non-peer-reviewed articles for research Articles from peer-reviewed sources are much more reliable compared to those that are from other sources. Peer-reviewed articles are more dependable because they are subjected to experts who give feedback t the authors. The resultant article represents the best practice in the relevant field, thus being an authoritative source. Top tier journal articles are great because they are thoroughly researched (Kelly, Sadeghieh&Adeli, 2014). Peer review is seen as a process of screening academic works by exposing it to critique by other scholars in the field. It encourages authors to embrace acceptable highest research standards and control information spread in a given discipline. These measures are meant to restrict unwarranted claims, crude interpretations, and personal perspectives from being published unless subjected to the relevant sieves. Academic writing and peer review go hand in hand in modern science. Peer review also helps make sure that published papers in science journals respond to meaningful questions and provide accurate conclusions informed by professionally run experimentation. Low-quality manuscripts have become common in the modern-day. Thus, peer review helps in filtering them. Owing to peer review's trusting nature, it is a critical basis for building knowledge in a cumulative and stepwise fashion (Kelly, Sadeghieh&Adeli, 2014). Knowledge is ordinarily built by reacting to the ideas of those who precede us across all disciplines. Scholarly articles ensure that they provide verifiable sources of the information provided. Scholarly pieces also attempt to point out and discuss the merits and demerits of alternative viewpoints for the stands they take regarding a given research matter. Thus, truth assessment is made easier. The strengths and weaknesses of research outcomes are also clearly outlined. It helps those who have the subject knowledge and are starting to learn about it (Eastern Michigan University Library, n.d). The web is an assortment of information sources. Although one may agree with the conclusions drawn in a paper found on the internet, there is usually no evidence chain provided to assess the paper's conclusions. Similarly, articles published in popular magazines may provide opinions and information, but they are not required to offer evidence supporting or refuting the conclusions drawn. On the contrary, scholarly articles must adhere to the laid-down approaches and research protocols in a clear structure that provides evaluation mechanisms for the author's postulated claims (Eastern Michigan University Library, n.d). Five pages, 7 Scholarly references not older than five years Explore a research-based article. Perform a database search on urinary tract infections. There are various levels of evidence. Select the article that has the best level of evidence. Describe how this article was selected and how it meets the criteria to be considered the best evidence level. Describe how this is a peer-reviewed article. Why is it significant to find peer-reviewed versus non-peer-reviewed articles for research? Please attach your article.

The process of critical review of a journal article relates acts as an information trajectory which aims at informing the reader the value of the article through the process of explanation, interpretation as well as analysis (Coutts, 2012). The essay will make a balanced analysis of the strength and weaknesses of the two articles ‘Customer Perspectives on E-business Value: Case Study on Internet Banking’ and ‘An exploratory study of victims using a national victimization survey’ and will provide a contrast of both of them along with their synthesis and conclusion. 1st journal -strengths The paper ‘Customer Perspectives on E-business Value: Case Study on Internet Banking’ written by Rahmath Safeena from its title reflects an important issue in the modern banking sector exhibited by the author. Along with that the author have also used keywords like internet banking, information and communication technology (ICT); perceived usefulness, ease of use, risk, awareness which are appropriate in examining the customer’s perspective (Safeena, 2010, p.5).Before moving into the discussion of the subject matter with in depth analysis, a brief literature review has been provided by the author reflecting various aspects of internet banking (Safeena, 2010, p.6). Identification of the research methodology is a crucial factor in executing research in a rigorous manner on a particular topic and also helps to deliver robust inferences. In this paper the process of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is being used for analyzing the extent of the acceptance of the internet banking system by the customers. The incorporation of the TAM model is a judicious application for reflecting the perspective of the customers related to the internet banking system (Safeena, 2010, pp. 6-7). Historically the model of TAM has been predominantly utilized by the information system researchers with a common notion that the model is valid in predicting the acceptance levels of the individuals regarding the new technologies. The variables like perceived usefulness as well as perceived ease of use are regarded as crucial factors which affects acceptance of a new technology. Empirics also reveal that there has been a positive correlation between the above two variables in the study of internet banking (Safeena, 2010, p.7). Applying proper statistical techniques it has been also found that when the online banking is perceived as useful then the customers are prone towards using internet banking. The findings state that usefulness, ease of use and risks are the prime parameters which affect positively the acceptability of the internet banking procedures (Safeena, 2010, pp.8-11). 1st journal -Weaknesses The author have mentioned description of different types of internet banking as well as different security issues in the literature review part but have included all the references which are old in their year of publication which are majorly around the year 1999-2000 and one or two references in the recent years like 2006 (Safeena, 2010, p.7). Again, in the strength section the process of TAM is mentioned which is indeed a good method of executing the research. But still this process suffers from some limitations. The first limitation is attached with the explanatory power of the model. Empirical results also found that the existing studies account for less than 60% of the variance explained especially those used by the professional users (Sun & Zhang, 2006, p.53). The sample used in for the purpose of research is students of business and economics students of an educational campus. But studying only the perspectives of the students will not provide any general conclusions about the overall public perspectives on the internet banking. (Khan & Mahapatra, 2009, p.35).
