Headings[edit source]

Hi, you have a really interesting topic! I thought I'd see how it was progressing.

I noticed that all of the words in your headings started with capitalised letters. Instead of having "Constructed Emotions", it should be "Constructed emotions". This is the case for all of your headings. I didn't want to edit your page, but I wanted to let you know that it's something you should change. James left a note on my page letting me know, so I thought I'd pass that along to you too. Keep up the good work! Kaylah-3163515 (discusscontribs) 01:49, 10 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

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==

Useful reference[edit source]

Found a really interesting reference on this topic in my own research as we have similar topics, check out the article 'What emotions really are (in the theory of constructed emotions)' by Jeremy Pober.http://web.b.ebscohost.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/ehost/detail/detail?vid=0&sid=8dbf1afc-0874-4659-8234-70e7551d4047%40sessionmgr103&bdata=#AN=131753990&db=hlh

Hope this helps with your chapter!! --U3173738 (discusscontribs) 06:47, 16 October 2019 (UTC) U3173738Reply

Italics in referencing[edit source]

Hi, to get italics in your referencing, use two commas at the start and finish of the section you want to be in italics, rather than quotation marks (means pressing the button twice instead of pressing shift and the quotation button). Hope that makes sense!! Also see this link for more info:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tutorial/Formatting --U3173738 (discusscontribs) 04:01, 20 October 2019 (UTC)U3173738Reply


Chapter review and feedback[edit source]

This chapter 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 through the chapter. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Chapter marks will be available later via UCLearn Canvas, along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is a solid chapter that successfully explains a psychological theory and its application.
  2. For additional feedback, see comments below and these copyedits.

Theory[edit source]

  1. Relevant theory is described reasonably well.
  2. However, clearer description would be ideal (e.g., no mention of the "emotion paradox"?)
  3. Consider including less theoretical explanation and more practical examples or case studies.

Research[edit source]

  1. Some relevant research is reviewed and discussed in relation to theory; more would be ideal.
  2. A critical perspective is evidence; what other studies should be conducted?
  3. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.

Written expression[edit source]

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is reasonably good.
    2. Use third person perspective rather than first person (e.g., "we") or second person (e.g., "you") perspective.
    3. Some paragraphs are overly long. Each paragraph should communicate one key idea in three to five sentences.
  2. Layout
    1. Avoid having sections with only one sub-section.
    2. See earlier comments about heading casing.
    3. 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. Use in-text interwiki links, rather than external links.
    2. Almost no use of interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding interwiki links for the first mention of key words would make the text more interactive. Why no link to Theory of constructed emotion? (some external links are provided in See also).
    3. No use of embedded links to related book chapters. Embedding interwiki links links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
    4. Basic use of images. Correct Figure 2 caption to reflect gender.
    5. No use of tables.
    6. No use of feature boxes.
    7. Good use of quizzes.
    8. No use of case studies.
  4. Grammar
    1. The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags).
    2. Check and make correct use of commas.
    3. Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[1].
    4. Check and correct use of affect vs. effect.
  5. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour; fulfillment vs. fulfilment).
  6. Proofreading
    1. Check and fix capitalisation (some unnecessary, some missing but needed).
  7. APA style
    1. Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10).
    2. Direct quotes need page numbers.
    3. Figures and tables
      1. Use APA style to refer to each Table and each Figure (e.g., do not use capitalise "See").
    4. Citations are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets.
      2. A semicolon is needed between two citations in parentheses.
      3. Do not include author initials.
      4. A serial comma is needed before "&" or "and" for citations involving three or more authors.
      5. In-text citations should be in alphabetical order.
    5. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation.
      2. Check and correct use of page numbers.
      3. Remove date of access.

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. ~5 minor, logged, social contributions with direct links to evidence

Structure and content[edit source]

  2. The presentation is well structured (Title, Overview, Body, Conclusion).
  3. Add and narrate an Overview slide, to help orientate the viewer about what will be covered.

Communication[edit source]

  1. The presentation is easy to follow.
  2. Well paced.
  3. The narration does a very good job of explaining the ideas.
