Excellent 2-level structure - not too little or not too much - and focused on the topic
The "What is political psychology" heading isn't really needed - can cover this concept briefly within the Overview or subsequent sections, with links to dedicated Wikiversity/Wikipedia resources for more info. This will allow the bulk of the structure to be focused on addressing the core topic (the chapter's sub-title).

Not sure about the claim that political psychology is relatively new (e.g., when I did undergrad psychology in the late 1980's, we were required to do an entire unit on the topic).
One main relevant theory (AIT) is described and explained.
Overall, this chapter provides a basic overview of some relevant research.
When describing important research findings, consider including a bit more detail about the methodology and indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.
Greater emphasis on major reviews and meta-analyses would be helpful.
Some statements are unreferenced (e.g., see the [factual?] tags).
Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences.
Direct quotes are overused. Direct quotes should be embedded within sentences and paragraphs, rather than dumped holus-bolus. Even better, communicate concepts in your own words.
Layout
The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections.
Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.

The presentation makes effective use of text and animated slides with narrated audio.
Well paced. Excellent pauses between sentences. This helps the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point.
The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read in the time provided.
The visual communication is effectively supplemented by images.
The full chapter title and sub-title are used on the opening slide - this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
Use the full chapter title and sub-title in the name of the video because this helps to match the book chapter and to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
Audio and video recording quality was excellent.
Images and audio sources are well acknowledged.
A link to and from the book chapter is provided.
A very basic written description of the presentation is provided.
