Hey, I want to ask do you know about any citation extension that automatically puts references and citations in our text?

[@sumbulsyed95]

Hello. You can try EndNote. It's a good reference manager software.

Hi. can you please tell how to approach the article for critical evaluation? like can you tell which body of the article to read carefully.

[@sumbulsyed95]

The first and foremost thing is to read the abstract because it will give an idea whether a particular academic paper is relevant to the topic you are writing about. For critical evaluation, usually it's the methodology section (such as sample size and all) that you focus on. Any study's methodology and analysis section is where you get to know how robust that study is. Hope this helps!
