Edits[edit source]

Hi,

This seems like it's shaping up to be an interesting page. I can tell you've got some formatting left to do but I thought I would help out. I've amended your figure captions so they reflect APA formatting. I've also added the required code in your references section so your references will have an indent. Finally, I thought it might be a good idea to add some interwiki links to your page. I've added one for emotional labour in your first paragraph so you can see how it's done. Adding them to relevant concepts and theories really aids comprehension. Good luck! U3036568 (discusscontribs) 00:44, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hey its starting to look good!! . Just pointing out where it says (however there must be some other reasoning why - ie) it could say (However, there must be some other reason why – IE) - just reads a little easier. I have also gone through a few of the paragraphs for you and just fixed some grammar mistakes and performed minor edits. Drop a comma when you put in a but or however or the sentence will be too long. All the best !U3075297 (U3075297 contribs.

Also someone dropped this in on my page which was useful

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==

This chapter has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page.

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is a basic, but sufficient chapter.
  2. For more feedback see these copyedits and the comments below.

Theory[edit source]

  1. Theory is covered to a sufficient degree, but not really discussed in detail.
  2. Addition of more examples or case studies could be helpful.

Research[edit source]

  1. Research is mentioned, but is lacking in sufficient detail.
  2. The Reeve (2015) textbook is over-used as a citation; preferably consult and cite primary, peer-reviewed sources.
  3. Many statements were unreferenced (e.g., see the [factual?] tags). Currently, this is a significant issue in this chapter.
  4. When describing important research studies, provide some indication of the nature of the sample and possibly cultural context.
  5. When discussing important research findings, indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.

Written expression[edit source]

  1. Written expression is problematic.
    1. The quality of written expression could be improved (e.g., see where clarification templates have been added to the page).
    2. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences.
  2. Layout
    1. See earlier comments about heading casing
    2. Add bullet-points for See also and External links.
    3. Several useful/relevant images are included.
  3. Learning features
    1. Add more Interwiki links (e.g., to relevant Wikipedia articles and other Wikiversity book chapters) to make the text more interactive.
  4. Ideally, tailor the quiz to the topic. (The topic isn't burnout).
  5. Spelling
    1. Fix: James Lang -> James-Lange; Cannon-Baard -> Cannon-Bard
  6. Grammar and proofreading
    1. Check and correct the use of abbreviations (such as "e.g.," and "i.e.,").
    2. Check and correct capitalisation (e.g., for names of theories).
    3. Check and correct the use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs. individuals').
    4. The grammar of many sentences needs to be improved for the written expression to be of professional standard (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags).
    5. Check and correct use of commas (e.g., "For example" -> "For example, ")
  7. APA style
    1. Check and correct the APA style formatting of in-text citations (e.g., for et al.)
    2. Figures should be referred in the text.
    3. Direct quotes need page numbers.
    1. Put in-text citations in alphabetical order.
    2. For the first citation of a source with three or more authors, include a comma before the "and" or "&"
    3. When there are three or more authors, subsequent citations should use et al. (e.g., Smith, Bush and Western (2001) first and and then Smith et al. (2001) subsequently).
    4. The reference list is not in full APA style.
