When writing the first half of the paper, pay attention to the following questions:
1. Why did the author or screenwriter include the reference to a communication disorder or difference?
2. Did the reference promote and propagate existing stereotypes about communication disorders, and if so, how?
3. Was the inclusion of the communication disorder necessary to developing the protagonist, other characters, and/or story line?
4. Was there clinical inaccuracy or misleading information in the portrayal of the communication disorder?
