Comments[edit source]

Hi! How is your book chapter going? not sure how much of it you have done but I'm doing facial expressions and whether it affects the emotions of others. I have come across a few articles that may be helpful for you. This one is really good and has some links to some other journals: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.85.4287 Also look into Paul Ekman's research on his website, there is alot of information and journals there as well. http://www.ekmaninternational.com/paul-ekman-international-plc-home/research.aspx Good luck with your book chapter!

Hello! TomMarvoloRiddle (discusscontribs)

H e l l l o[edit source]

Yo Imogen!! Your page is looking really good so far! I really like the way that you are using the drop down boxes to add a bit of flair into the page!! Good luck with finishing it soon!! TomMarvoloRiddle (discusscontribs) 23:54, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Imogen! I hope you chapter is progressing well, I was wondering if you had given any thought to the role that facial expression can play in criminal matters? Say if an offender was being questioned, would they exhibit the same facial expression as a noncriminal? I know that certain facial expressions are easily recognizable across culture (happiness, anger etc). maybe something to think about! If you do want to look into this further, i'm sure this article: DECODING OF FACIAL EXPRESSION OF EMOTION IN CRIMINAL PSYCHOPATHS will be helpful. Hopefully this helps. Good luck.

Headings[edit source]

Hi again Imogen, I went ahead and changed some of your heading to comply with the wikiversity convention. It would be worthwhile having a look at the comment by James on the Aggression page about heading casing for the rest of your book chapter!

Cross-Race Effect[edit source]

This may be related to "facial expressions and culture" and is well documented. Here are three links for some background reading. Basically, we tend to recognise faces of our own race better than the faces of other races.

Overall[edit source]

This chapter is interesting, engaging and beautifully presented - nicely done!

Theory[edit source]

Appropriate theories are included in this chapter, and each of them are described in sufficient detail. Practical applications are incorporated throughout. I would encourage the inclusion of some critical evaluation of the content presented.

Research[edit source]

The interesting research is a particular highlight of this chapter - well done for picking up on the important classic studies. To improve further, include some more recent research to support the theories presented.

Written expression[edit source]

Beautifully presented! The use of drop down boxes and a quiz make this chapter very engaging. Remember to proof read the chapter carefully before submission, as there are a number of grammatical and spelling errors. Also, the chapter comes across as repetitive in sections. This can be avoided by creating a clear plan prior to commencement of the assignment. ShaunaB (discusscontribs)

Overall[edit source]

Structure and content[edit source]

Research and theory are well integrated, and key concepts for presentation have been well identified. The flow is generally logical, however I would suggest that it may have been better to mention the three theories closer to the start of the presentation.

Communication[edit source]

The presenter spoke clearly and confidently. The presentation was quite engaging, but this could have been improved through the inclusion of more illustrative examples.

Production quality[edit source]

Picture and sound quality are good. Basic tools are used effectively. ShaunaB (discusscontribs)
