This is an exercise in examining socio-centric and ethical reasoning.  

Do the following:

• Reflect on your mindset and a cultural belief that is a central tenet of your life.
• Explore the benefits and challenges of egocentric thinking.
• Identify the logic used to make the claims presented in the scholarly article.
• Develop a logical argument with causal explanations or hypotheses, which can square egocentric thinking and cultural and religious, social or political beliefs with logic and reason.  Cite your source as evidence.
• Be sure to adhere to the apa format 
• Remember that critical thinking is not just your opinion; rather, it is a claim that provides evidence that helps you prove an argument.
