This manual is for PSYC FPX 2002 Assessment 2, start to submission. The CRAAP Test and Library Worksheet asks you to practice evaluating information: apply the CRAAP test, currency, relevance, authority, accuracy and purpose, to a source found on the internet, then search the Capella library for a scholarly source on the same topic and evaluate it, explaining which is more credible and why. The grade turns on applying each CRAAP criterion with evidence from the source. "It seems reliable" scores low; naming the author's credentials and the evidence cited scores high. Below is the method our tutors use, a structure that maps to the criteria, and an annotated sample excerpt. Prefer to hand it off? A premium original sample for this exact assessment comes back in 24 to 48 hours, revised free until it meets the guide. Capella's catalog lists the course as PSYC-FPX2002, and some courserooms print PSYC2002; both point to this same Assessment 2. In current courserooms this assessment typically appears as "CRAAP Test and Library Worksheet".
One honesty note before the manual: Capella revises courses and scoring guides over time, so always write to the exact scoring guide attached to your assessment in the courseroom. The course identity above is verified on capella.edu; the method and structure below are our tutors' approach to it, not Capella's official rubric text.
How PSYC FPX 2002 Assessment 2 is scored
FlexPath does not use letter grades. Each criterion in the scoring guide lands on one of four levels, and the level descriptions are the real writing brief:
| Level | What it means on a worksheet |
|---|---|
| Distinguished | The worksheet is specific to the organization or case, applies course concepts accurately with credible sources, and ends in justified conclusions or recommendations. |
| Proficient | The worksheet is accurate, but the application or recommendations are general. |
| Basic | The worksheet describes concepts with little application. |
| Non-performance | A required part of the worksheet is missing. |
Complete every part of the worksheet and include links or citations for both sources.

Annotated sample excerpt
An original model excerpt from our team, written to show the register that reaches the top of the guide. Learn the moves, then write your own version.
Authority: the article was written by a staff writer with no stated psychology training and published on a wellness site that sells supplements, so its authority is weak.1 Accuracy: it cites one study but does not link it, and the claim that the study "proves" mindfulness cures anxiety overstates what a single small study can show.2 By contrast, the library source is a peer-reviewed meta-analysis by university researchers, so it scores far higher on both criteria.3
- 1Evaluates authority with evidence.
- 2Evaluates accuracy precisely.
- 3Compares with the scholarly source.
