David Rosenhan sent "pseudopatients" to a mental hospital, where they pretended to be disturbed. The results led him to conclude that stigma greatly impacts mental illness.

The article is about the Covid-19 Social Relief of Distress Grant that was introduced in May 2020 which was given to people with no income to reduce the devastating effects of covid19 pandemic. Criterion 2 Engenas Senona, Dr. Erin Torkelson and Dr. Wanga Zembe-Mkabile. I think the authors are trustworthy because they can be verified they have listed their credential and the authors have written other articles which are very similar to this article. Criterion 3 The article is based on scientific evidence and expert opinion. Scientific evidence because a quantitative study was used where statistical information was collected. Detailed numeric data was provided for better understanding. Expert opinion because people were interviewed for their opinions. Criterion 4 The authors did not cite the evidence however they have a list of references to show acknowledgement. The sources are easily accessible and verifiable. Criterion 5 I believe the is credible because the authors professions and paces of work have been listed. The article was published by reputable publishers and has been cited by 11 authors. The South African Medical Research Council granted ethical permission for this investigation. Before starting any interview, all participants underwent an informed consent procedure that included a thorough description of the interview's purpose, with the aim of ensuring that participants comprehended the study's goals and objectives to the best of their ability. Every person who decided to participate in the study signed a permission form. All names were fictitious in order to safeguard identity.

METHODOLOGY Study design In order to explore perceptions of private and public hospitals, an exploratory qualitative approach was followed. Qualitative methods are particularly suitable for exploring the 'hows' and 'whys' (reasons for) as well as the 'whats' (perceptions) under research42. Discussion and reflection were encouraged using focus group discussions (FGDs)43. Qualitative research can direct researchers to underlying behaviours, attitudes and perceptions that influence health outcomes and can help to explain social and programmatic obstacles to informed choice or the use of services31. Because of South Africa's history of enforced racial segregation, and the complex intersection of race with identity, perception, and experience (including potentially access to healthcare services)18, the groups were racially delineated into 'black' and 'white' participants. FGDs were also divided according to experience (recent or indirect) of hospital services (public or private). Literature suggests that recent users of both private and public sectors are generally more satisfied with services than those with no direct recent experience11, 40,41. Furthermore, users of private hospitals are reported to hold a more negative view of public hospitals, which also highlights the importance of distinguishing between views based on perceptions and those based on actual experience11,41. 'Recent experience' was defined as 'own' admission in the previous year or admission of a friend or relative close to the participant. in summary how do you feel about the credibility and trust worthy of the article above as asource of information
