I dindn't want to imply that it wasn't a good article for a psych class. I find I can use almost anything to illustrate something in psychology or as a discussion starter.
Even for motiviation class...she is after all promoting her new novel "Good as Gold". The entire story of what happened during the sinking of the titanic could indeed be made up by her. For example, I don't find anything convincing at all (in the article at least) as to why her grandfather, a decorated navy officer, would have lied to the investigation committee in the first place--it is merely asserted that he did so. There is nothing culpable for the sinking in his purported actions. And of course, since no one can contradict Louise Patten's story she can claim whatever she wants (and probably will). Could a new movie be in the future if her book is well written enough...blending known fact with storytelling? Perhaps she can already smell the money...I personally smell a fish here. --Mike --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
