The CRAP Test looks at four major areas: currency, reliability, authority and purpose. When determining whether a website is credible or not, evaluate it on those four areas. Here are a few suggestions to help you think through your evaluation process.

Is it current enough for your topic?
Reliability

Is content of the resource primarily opinion? Is is balanced?
Does the creator provide references or sources for data or quotations?
Authority
Who is the creator or author?
What are the credentials? Can you find any information about the author’s background?
Who is the published or sponsor?
Are they reputable?
What is the publisher’s interest (if any) in this information?
Are there advertisements on the website? If so, are they cleared marked?
Purpose/Point of View
Is this fact or opinion? Does the author list sources or cite references?
Is it biased? Does the author seem to be trying to push an agenda or particular side?
Is the creator/author trying to sell you something? If so, is it clearly stated?)
This specific point should be quoted or directly paraphrased and include an in-text citation.
How does this source help Burgess et al. to support their evaluation of racial stereotypes in video games.
