hey, i have been working on sensation seeking and alcohol use. i will strongly suggest to have a look at the relationship between sensation seeking and aggression in adolescent. there are a lot of articles that talk about the relationship of the two. please come to my page, you may find some interesting articles. hey, i will also suggest to have a look at:


Konijn, E. A., Nije Bijvank, M., & Bushman, B. J. (2007). I wish I were a warrior: The role of wishful identification in the effects of violent video games on aggression in adolescent boys. Developmental Psychology, 43(4), 1038-1044. doi:10.1037/0012-1649.43.4.1038

Heading casing

[edit source]
FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings. For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall,
  2. For more feedback, see these copyedits and comments below.
  1. Theory is very well covered and explained.
  1. Research is very well covered.
  2. When describing important research findings, indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.
  1. Written expression is reasonably good, but is the main area for possible improvement.
    1. The chapter would benefit from a more developed Overview and Conclusion, with clearer focus question(s) (Overview) and take-home self-help message for each focus question (Conclusion).
  2. Layout
    1. No Tables and/or Figures were used.
    2. See earlier comments about heading casing
    3. Coloured boxes were removed to aid readability; keep the style simple (e.g., as per Wikipedia articles)
  3. Learning features
    1. Some links to Wikipedia and/or Wikiversity articles were added as external links - these should be changed to interwiki links
    2. Incorporate link to other relevant chapters.
  4. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize -> hypothesise)
  5. Grammar and proofreading
    1. The grammar of many sentences needs improvement (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags)
    2. Check and correct the use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs. individuals')
  6. APA style
    1. Check/correct APA style for in-text citations
    2. Put in-text citations in alphabetical order.
    3. For the first citation of a source with three or more authors, include a comma before the "and" or "&"
    4. When there are three or more authors, subsequent citations should use et al. e.g., Smith, Bush and Western (2001) and then in the next paragraph cite Smith et al. (2001).
    5. Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets.
    6. Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numbers (e.g., 10)
    7. Direct quotes need page numbers.
    8. Add APA style captions to tables and figures.
    9. The reference list is not in full APA style.
    10. Remove issue numbers for seriated journal references.
