Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2023/Core emotions

Initial suggestions

@U3229619: Thanks for tackling this topic.

Some initial suggestions:

• This is a broad topic, so it should introduce and link to more specific chapters about each of the core emotions, for example.
• Note that there was a previous attempt, so check out that chapter and the feedback on its talk page.
• Also check out other emotion chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work.

Let me know if I can do anything else as you go along.

Heading casing

Hi U3229619. FYI, the recommended Wikiversity heading style uses sentence casing. For example: Self-determination theory rather than Self-Determination Theory Here's an example chapter with correct heading casing: Growth mindset development -- Jtneill - Talk - c 11:16, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Title The title is correctly worded and formatted The sub-title is correctly worded and formatted Headings Promising 2-level heading structure – could benefit from further development In particular, the chapter focuses on happiness (joy might be a better term - happiness is a broader concept), sadness, and fear, but does not cover disgust, anger, or interest. So provide less detail about those few core emotions and more coverage of the other core emotions. Aim for a balanced coverage. Rather than present Ekman's model, Plutchik's model etc. separately, consider presenting a synthesis that draws on these theories/research Quiz yourself does not need a heading; just embed quiz questions in their most relevant section Overview Very good Add a scenario in a feature box at the start to help catch reader interest Engaging introduction There is no mention of psychology or key theory Focus questions Good Use open-ended questions Key points Promising development of key points for each section, with relevant citations Key suggestion is to provide equal coverage of each core emotion Excellent to see critical thinking (e.g., limitations) Conclusion (the most important section): Under developed Figure A relevant figure is presented Captions could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text Cite each figure at least once in the main text Learning feature Excellent use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Promising use of quiz question(s) Consider including more examples/case studies, table(s) etc. References Very good For APA referencing style, check and correct: italicisation Resources See also Excellent External links Very good Use sentence casing Include source in brackets after link User page Good Brief description about self provided – consider expanding Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn.

Overall Overall, this is an excellent chapter. It 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 Reasonably good Briefly explains the problem or phenomenon Consider introducing a case study or example or using an image to help engage reader interest Reasonably good focus question(s) I've split the double-barrelled question Theory An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Build more strongly on other related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters in this category: Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/*) Insightful depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Generally well cited, but this is inconsistent and there is a lack of sufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations in some places (e.g., see the tags) Research Excellent review of relevant research Excellent critical thinking about relevant research is evident Integration Excellent integration between theory and research Conclusion Excellent summary and conclusion Key points are well summarised Summarise key points Add practical, take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent Layout The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections Figures Figures are very well captioned Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text Refer to each Figure using APA style (e.g., do not use italics, check and correct capitalisation) Tables Use APA style for captions. See example Refer to each Table at least once within the main text (e.g., see Table 1) Citations use correct APA style References use generally correct APA style, with some minor inconsistencies Learning features Excellent use of learning features Excellent 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. Basic use of image(s) Very good use of table(s) Excellent use of feature box(es) Excellent use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) 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 Use sentence casing Social contribution ~8 logged, useful, mostly minor to moderate social contributions with direct links to evidence
