Critical thinking paper

There are two essay topics from which to select: Stereotype Inoculation and Understanding Mindfulness. Each article has an associated commentary. References for each primary article and commentary article appear below. 

The critical thinking essay assignment is as follows: 

 Review the primary article in no more than 2 pages. Then present two issues and/or arguments being raised in the commentary article. Be sure to link how these two issues and/or arguments serve as counterpoints to or modify the points in the original article. Based upon your experience and understanding of the differences between the two issues/arguments you discussed, complete the paper by proposing some suggestions for future research/analysis that could help better understand or resolve these differences. 6 pages maximum. 

 If you have access to Psychological Inquiry through a library, you are welcome to access the articles on your own.
