Prior research has shown narrative writing to help with making meaning out of trauma. This article uses grounded theory to analyze semi-structured interviews with ten spoken word poets. Because spoken word poetry is performed live, it creates personal and community connections that enhance the emotional development and resolution offered by the practice of writing. The findings are limited by the small, nonrandom sample (all the participants were from the same community).
When using the AI research tools recommended on this site, you will cite the sources you found using the tool, not the AI tool itself. This is similar to how using OneSearch, you cite the sources you find, not OneSearch, in your work.
Standard writing practice is to trace the source of a piece of information back to original source. Since Generative AI always draws on other sources and is not a source of original information, you are responsible for fact-checking the information and determining if the sources it provided are credible.
Moreover, generative AI may produce citations or quotes within their content. or hallucinated information with phantom citations. If AI provides you with a source, use the library's OneSearch. to try and locate the material to evaluate.
