1. As I was reading the article, there were a lot grammatical errors, as well as some elementary vocabulary and sentences. The goal for our assignment is to improve this article, and our dialogue relays how serious we are going to be taken when we submit information.
2. I want to focus on the definition and about mental conformity. In the first paragraph of the article, it gives the definition, which is written rather simply, and then the article leads into a research study that was conducted. First, this transitioning is poorly done. Secondly, this information could be separated into two paragraphs and expanded on. In this article that I'll be using, it explains a more inept look into memory conformity. [1] which I will be using to describe more clearly to the readers. In this second article that I'm using, it explains a study and how memory conformity is seen in free recall and recognition.[2]I

1. I would like to focus on how peer pressure effects memory conformity. Social pressure plays a major part in the memory conformity. Also, media coverage can change the way people remember big, international events like war or political scandal. [3]

1. I would like to focus on collaberative memormy conformity. It seems that when people witness an event two people see it completely differently but they both tell the stories and mix them together. .[4]

2. Another thing I would like to focus on is how confidence level effects memory conformity. Depending on the confidence level it appears people's memories adapt to the more confident person's memory of the event. It is crazy how one person can change everyone's ideas and memory of what happened at a certain time. [5]
