Comments[edit source]

Hey, Im really interested in seeing the finished product of this chapter as I think motivation is the only way to quit smoking! Some ideas: Look at intrinsic and extrinsic motivations - Curry, S., Wagner, E. H., & Grothaus, L. C. (1990). Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation for smoking cessation. Journal Of Consulting And Clinical Psychology, 58(3), 310-316. doi:10.1037/0022-006X.58.3.310

Autonomous motivations: Williams, G. G., Gagné, M., Ryan, R. M., & Deci, E. L. (2002). Facilitating autonomous motivation for smoking cessation. Health Psychology, 21(1), 40-50. doi:10.1037/0278-6133.21.1.40

Brief motivational interview: Colby, S. M., Monti, P. M., Barnett, N. P., Rohsenow, D. J., Weissman, K., Spirito, A., & ... Lewander, W. J. (1998). Brief motivational interviewing in a hospital setting for adolescent smoking: A preliminary study. Journal Of Consulting And Clinical Psychology, 66(3), 574-578. doi:10.1037/0022-006X.66.3.574

Motivational advice: Carpenter, M. J., Hughes, J. R., Solomon, L. J., & Callas, P. W. (2004). Both Smoking Reduction With Nicotine Replacement Therapy and Motivational Advice Increase Future Cessation Among Smokers Unmotivated to Quit. Journal Of Consulting And Clinical Psychology, 72(3), 371-381. doi:10.1037/0022-006X.72.3.371

Anyway hope this provides you with a good starting place! Perhaps even look at Theory of Planned behaviour as well! -all articles cited are available on google scholar through UC

Good luck!

personal experience[edit source]

Hey I just thought that I would share my personal experience with quitting smoking, the only reason I believe I successfully quit was due to the motivation of having more money to get more tattoos I had tried to quit before but I had no motivation to do so and was not successful, it would probably be a god idea to also briefly look at the emotional side of quitting smoking and what affect it has, good luck with your chapter K.kauhanen (discusscontribs) 12:45, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dopamine[edit source]

Hi! Im doing a similar topic in motivation and dopamine, if you would like some more information on addictive personalities and dopamine i have a section in my page about the basics of this. A small section on structure of dopamine and function i feel would tie in well. Otherwise good read!

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, this is an all-round impressive presentation – well done!

Structure and content[edit source]

  1. An extremely well designed and organised presentation which provides a very good overview of the role motivation plays in quitting smoking of cigarettes. The presentation displayed insight and logical flow between concepts related to the topic such as the chemical effects on the brain and methods of quitting. There was evidently good understanding, explanation and integration of three psychological theories related to motivation embedded in the presentation. Perhaps more emphasis on current research studies examining the motivations behind smoking cessation behaviour would further strengthen the presentation. Excellent focus on 'self-help' and practical life change.

Communication[edit source]

  1. Clear communication of ideas using voice and image was displayed. The presentation was well-paced and engaging and displayed good use of illustrative examples. Separate slides for each motivation theory would be useful and more interesting (e.g., as per the different quitting methods).

Production quality[edit source]

  1. The presentation had clear picture and audio quality and demonstrated effective use of screencast to communicate ideas. The presentation also had a clear element of professionalism about it.
