                       This article is about young adults who smoke, that have depression. Depression symptoms influence people to have the urge to smoke. Some signs of depression are major mood swings, fatigue, loss of interest in activity's, change in eating habits and also an increase in anxiety. The point of view of this interesting article is about how depression and smoking are compared to each other.
                       The article is not bias it is true because I can relate to it. I smoke because it helps calm my depression. My girlfriend is helping me to not smoke any more because when I'm with her I'm not depressed.
                       This article relates to me because I don't have depression and I have as much of anxiety when I'm with her.

                        The article is about how smoking causes 440000 deaths each year. The point of view is that the use of tobacco and alcohol substance mixed with each other stops your intentions of quitting smoking and are more likely to smoke a part of a pact of cigarettes more per day. The more alcohol you have, the more likely you will crave and the more nicotine you have, you are more likely to crave alcohol.
                        The article is bias because it talks about both sides of the story.
                        This article relates to me because I used to drink but, I still smoke, but trying to quit and the article is telling the truth about the more alcohol you have, the more likely you will crave and the more nicotine you have, you are more likely to crave alcohol.

                     This article is about relationships between friends & family of students who smoke.  The point this article is making is that it shows negative behaviors in students who smoke.  Some of these negative behaviors are that there is an urge to continue to smoke if you see someone else smoking when you're trying to quit.  Negative behaviors include: aggression, territorial romantic relationships & friendships, depression, & dating violence.  The article also talks about trying to quit smoking cigarettes & how people who smoke cigarettes are more likely to do other drugs & alcohol abuse. 
                     The article is not biased because it uses scientific proof.  The article is also true because of the personal experiences I have noticed that I have had more aggression & relationship problems.  I also know that quitting is hard because I have tried it twice.  Quitting smoking depends on who you are.  Some people can quit just like that & others it takes time.
                     It is helping me with my research because I see the behaviors in this article are describing the behaviors I have & other people I know who smoke have.

Scioli, E., Biller, H., Rossi, J., & Riebe, D. (n.d). Personal Motivation, Exercise, and Smoking Behaviors Among Young Adults. Behavioral Medicine, 35(2), 57.
                 The article is about the behaviors of a smoker. The point of view of this article is about self determination. Self determination is an on going process of seeking challenges. Lack of control of self determination leads to feeling emotionally helpless and and changes your learning ability and performance to your worst. It is very crucial to have self determination if you are a smoker because its good for your well being. Researchers have noticed that smokers are less active in exercise activities.
                 This article is bias because people that smoke are less motivated to get up and participate in exercising and the people that don't smoke are more motivated to participate in exercising.
                 This article relates to me because I lack control of my self determination and also have noticed that the article said smokers are less active. I have been less active in exercise activities now that I have started smoking.

                     The article is about young adults attempts to quit smoking. The point of view of this article is about young adult smokers and ways to attempt to quit smoking. It is estimated that most smokers start smoking before the age of 18, then get addicted through their adulthood. Smokers who have intentions to quit they want to quit sooner or later otherwise they don't quit smoking. Smokers who do want to quit are more motivated to quit right there and actually quit smoking.
                      The article that I have read is not bias because it talks about smokers that are trying to quit and smokers that do not want to quit.
                      This article relates to me because I do have intentions to quit, but I haven't quit yet. I have tried to quit twice but my goals aren't strong enough to quit, but I'm for sure that for the third time that I quit.
