If you answered UNLV Gaming Research & Review, you were correct! An article in a peer-reviewed journal is more likely to have been written by an expert and will have been evaluated by other experts before it is published. Writers for Sports Illustrated are not likely to have expertise in social issues surrounding gambling.

Question

Again, your research question is "What are the social benefits and liabilities for tribes developing casinos on Indian reservations?"

Here's the next quiz question:

Which source is more likely to be accurate?

Group of answer choices

employment statistics from a newsletter published by a grassroots organization opposed to gambling

employment statistics from the U. S. Department of Labor website

Answer 1

The source that is more likely to be accurate is employment statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor website.

Government agencies such as the U.S. Department of Labor typically use rigorous methodologies to collect and report data, and their statistics are often subject to review and verification processes. In contrast, a newsletter published by a grassroots organization may not adhere to the same level of scrutiny or methodological rigor, and it may have biases based on the organization's agenda or perspective.
