Overall Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Promising Overview Ideally, focus on the therapeutic aspect rather than just the emotional effects of nature (there are other chapters about the latter) Consider including an image to help engage reader interest Clear focus question(s) Theory – Breadth A diverse range relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained Build more strongly on other nature-related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters in this category: Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Nature) Theory – Depth Insightful, integrative depth is provided about the selected theory(ies) Key citations are well used Tables and/or lists could be used more effectively to help clearly convey key theoretical information Some useful examples are provided to illustrate theoretical concepts Research – Key findings Relevant research is well reviewed Greater emphasis on effect sizes, major reviews, and/or meta-analyses would be helpful Research – Critical thinking Excellent critical thinking about relevant research is evident Claims are referenced Integration Discussion of theory and research is well integrated Conclusion Reasonably good summary Consider reminding the reader about the importance of the problem or phenomenon of interest Includes general take-home message(s) Written expression – Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes. Layout Sections which branch into sub-sections should include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections Grammar, spelling, and proofreading are excellent Figures Figures are very well captioned Provide more detailed Figure captions to help connect the figure to the text Figure captions use the correct format Figure captions should use this format: Figure X. Descriptive caption in sentence casing. See example Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text Refer to each Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1) Refer to each Figure using APA style (e.g., do not use italics, check and correct capitalisation) Tables Table captions use APA style Tables are referred to using APA style Citations use correct APA style References are not in full APA style. For example: Add spaces between author initials Page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) Written expression – Learning features Overall, the use of learning features is excellent Very good use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project. Good use of image(s) No use of table(s) Excellent use of feature box(es) Excellent use of quiz(zes) Excellent use of case studies or examples Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Good/ use of external links in the "External links" section Social contribution ~5 logged, useful, minor/moderate/major social contributions with direct links to evidence
