However, I am going to experiment with applying this to the next few articles I read. I can see how this would be very useful in taking (organizing) notes and ideas gleaned from reading an article or book. If I continue to apply this to sources read, I will include the mindmap of each with my notes, comments on it.
Below, is one I created for the research question (as it is now). Click and drag to view the entire map.
