The topic development has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing the chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Topic development marks are available via UCLearn. Note that marks are based on what was available before the due date, whereas the comments may also be based on all material available at time of providing this feedback.
Sections which include sub-sections should also include an overview paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
Avoid providing too much background information (e.g., about the disorder). Instead, briefly summarise generic concepts and provide internal wiki links to further information. Then the focus of most of the content can be on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title (i.e., the motivation behind FD/malingering and what can be done about it).

Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
This chapter is well over the maximum word count. The Overview could be abbreviated.
Consider adding focus questions to the Overview.
For additional feedback, see comments below and these copyedits.
Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained.
There is too much general descriptive material about the disorders (leading to the chapter being over the maximum word count). Instead, summarise and link to further information, to allow this chapter to focus on the specific topic (i.e., the sub-title question).
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.
Use internal rather than external links in "See also" for other book chapters.
Add an external links section.

The presentation is interesting to watch and listen to.
The presentation makes basic use of text based slides with narrated audio.
Slow down. Leave longer pauses between sentences. This can help the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point.
Consider using greater intonation to enhance listener interest and engagement.
Some of the font size should be larger to make it easier to read.
The visual communication could be improved by including some relevant images.
Communicate the chapter title and sub-title in both the video title and on the opening slide this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
Audio recording quality was excellent.
Visual display quality was basic.
