Question 18 • LEHS TX Health OC (SY26-27)

Katie’s grandmother has Alzheimer’s disease. Katie’s grandfather brings her a list of sources he found. Which source is most likely reliable?

Answer
A
a social media link to an article with citations written by a neurobiologist
B
a blog post that connects dementia to having chicken pox in childhood
C
a website for a company developing a new drug-based treatment for Alzheimer's
D
a social media page supervised by a person with Alzheimer's

Explanation

A neurobiologist is a relevant expert, and citations let readers check the evidence behind the article. The social media link does not by itself make the source unreliable, though the article’s claims and citations should still be checked. The other sources make an unsupported-sounding connection, may have a financial interest in promoting a treatment, or share personal experiences rather than expert evidence.
