1. Can you easily identify the claim, reasons, and evidence provided in the resource?
Yes, the claim is that maternal age appears to be an independent risk factor for cesarean delivery. The reasons are found in the statistics of their research.
2. Do the evidence and reasons logically support the claim? Why or why not?
Yes, it appears that all variables were taken into account when the study was done. At first the research included demographic characteristics, medical history, pregnancy complications, labor complications, mode of delivery and pregnancy outcome. Then, researchers adjusted the odds ratios and pin poited advanced maternal age.
3. Do you have a similar resource that either argues the same perspective or conducts a similar study?
I have a resource that has a similar study in that advanced maternal age also has an affect on mother's being able to have a vaginal delivery after they have initially had a cesarean section.
4. If so, did the two resources use similar methods for gathering and presenting data for their argument? How are they similar and different?
Both sources did broad research on mother's and their deliveries and then slowly took out all variables other than advanced maternal age. Both resources show that advanced maternal age has an affect on cesarean sections whether they are the first delivery or trying for a second.

i was under the impression that once you have had a cesarean you can only deliver by cesarean after that..seems like i could be wrong,looking foward to reading your final paper.
