Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is a very good chapter which clearly covers theory and research about a particular aspect of sexual motivation and behaviour.
  2. The chapter is well structured, researched, and written. The grammar could be improved.
  3. For more feedback see these copyedits and the comments below.

Theory[edit source]

  1. Theory is well selected, explained and applied.
  2. The Overview and Conclusion are particularly good sections, providing strong beginnings and ends to the chapter.
  3. The case study/example was helpful.

Research[edit source]

  1. Research is well covered.
  2. The Reeve textbook is over-used as a citation; preferably consult and cite primary, peer-reviewed sources.
  3. When discussing important research findings, indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.
  4. The key issue that is not covered is causality. Many correlational statistics are cited. Usually the assumption seems to be that the sexual behaviour is the causal factor - but it could be the other way around, bidirectional, or due to a third factor.

Written expression[edit source]

  1. Written expression is generally clear and easy to follow, but has many grammatical errors.
    1. The quality of written expression could be improved (e.g., see where clarification templates have been added to the page).
  2. Layout
    1. Tables and/or Figures are used effectively.
  3. Learning features
    1. Add Interwiki links (e.g., to relevant Wikipedia articles and other Wikiversity book chapters) to make the text more interactive.
    2. Quiz questions could be used to encourage reader engagement.
  4. The grammar of many sentences could be improved (e.g., see my copyedits).
  5. APA style
    1. Add APA style captions to tables and figures.
    2. The reference list is not in full APA style.
