Heading casing[edit source]

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings (or sentence casing). For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==

Italics[edit source]

Hey, Great start to the book chapter just letting you know when you use italics for referencing you don't use the quotation marks instead you use multiple apostrophes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial/Formatting Goodluck --Quinopop (discusscontribs) 03:32, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply


Topic development feedback[edit source]

The topic development has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing the chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Topic development marks are available via UCLearn. Note that marks are based on what was available before the due date, whereas the comments may also be based on all material available at time of providing this feedback.

Title and sub-title[edit source]

  1. Excellent

User page[edit source]

  1. Created, with description about self and link to book chapter

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. One summarised - summarise more briefly
  2. Indirect link to evidence
  3. Add direct links to evidence. To do this: View the page history, select the version of the page before and after your contributions, click "compare selected revisions", and then use this website address as a direct link to evidence for listing on your user page. For more info, see Making and summarising social contributions.

Section headings[edit source]

  1. Basic, 2-level heading structure - could benefit from further development
  2. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading - use 0 or 2+ sub-headings.
  3. See earlier comment about Heading casing.
  4. Sections which include sub-sections should also include an overview paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
  5. Avoid providing too much background information. Instead, briefly summarise generic concepts and provide internal wiki links to further information. Then the focus of most of the content can be on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title.

Key points[edit source]

  1. Some useful key points, but patchy development, especially for latter sections
  2. Overview - empty (just repeats the headings)
  3. Overview - Consider adding focus questions.
  4. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles.
  5. Consider introducing a case study in the Overview.
  6. Consider including more examples/case studies.
  7. Consider embedding one quiz question per major section rather than having one longer quiz towards the end.
  8. Remove/adapt generic template material

Image[edit source]

  1. An image (figure) is presented.
  2. Caption uses APA style.
  3. Caption could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text.
  4. Cite each figure at least once in the main text.

References[edit source]

  1. Good.
  2. For full APA style:
    1. Use correct italicisation
    2. Use the new recommended format for dois - http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2014/07/how-to-use-the-new-doi-format-in-apa-style.html

Resources[edit source]

  1. See also
    1. Consider linking to related book chapters
    2. Consider linking to related Wikipedia articles
  2. External links
    1. Rename links so that they are more user friendly

Comments about draft[edit source]

  1. Overview - consider incorporating a case study/example
  2. Consider expanding development of focus questions
  3. Use active rather than passive voice e.g., "This chapter will explore..." -> "This chapter explores..."
  4. Rather than "What is cognitive reappraisal?" and "What is emotion regulation?", how about focusing more directly on the topic: "What is cognitive reappraisal of emotion?"
  5. Expand figure captions to connect with key point(s) being made in the text
  6. Consider using sub-headings for the main/longest sections
  7. Avoid directional referencing (e.g., "As discussed above")
  8. Use interwiki links for the first mention of key words
  9. See also - include destination in brackets - see examples in other chapters
  10. References - check and correct capitalisation
  11. External links - rename link so that it is more user friendly
  12. Consider inviting peer feedback

Good to see this coming along. Based on a quick review of the latest version, some further suggestions:

  1. Where a section has sub-sections, include an introductory paragraph before the first sub-section.
  2. Use 0 or 2 ore more sub-sections - i.e., avoid having a single sub-section
  3. Remove citations from headings
  4. See also - consider also linking to relevant book chapters and Wikipedia articles

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem in an easy to ready manner, with useful examples. The main area for development is in providing a more indepth, critical review of related research.
  2. Thorough Overview and solid Conclusion.
  3. For additional feedback, see comments below and these copyedits.

Theory[edit source]

  1. Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained.
  2. Embed connections to related chapters (e.g., broaden and build theory).

Research[edit source]

  1. Overall, this chapter makes insufficient use of research.
  2. When describing important research findings, consider including a bit more detail about the methodology and indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.
  3. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.

Written expression[edit source]

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the chapter is very well written.
    2. Some paragraphs are overly long. Each paragraph should communicate one key idea in three to five sentences.
  2. Layout
    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections.
    2. Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
  3. Learning features
    1. Basic use of interwiki links and embedded links to related book chapters.
    2. Embedding interwiki links links to related book chapters would help to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
    3. Good use of images.
    4. No use of tables.
    5. Very good use of feature boxes.
    6. Excellent use of quizzes.
    7. Excellent use of case studies or examples.
  4. Grammar, spelling, and proofreading are excellent.
  5. APA style
    1. Use APA style to refer to each Table and each Figure (e.g., do not use italics).
    2. Citations are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. A serial comma is needed before "&" or "and" for citations involving three or more authors.
    3. References use correct APA style.

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. ~8 logged, useful, social contributions with direct links to evidence
