Well developed 2-level heading structure, with meaningful headings that directly relate to the core topic.
Sections which include sub-sections should also include an overview paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.

Overall, this chapter provides a basic overview of relevant research.
Relevant research is reviewed and discussed in relation to theory.
Age is argued to have a linear relationship to SCC, but then it is argued to have a curvilinear relationship. So, which is it? And what is the nature of the curvilinear relationship?
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/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
Use third person perspective rather than first person (e.g., "we") or second person (e.g., "you") perspective.
Layout
Avoid having sections with only one sub-section.
Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
Level 3 headings have been skipped (goes from Level 2 to Level 4).
Basic use of interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. The links should be tidied up. For example, [[wikipedia:Self-verification_theory#targetText=Self%2Dverification%20is%20a%20social,concepts%20and%20self%2Desteem).|self-verification]] should simply be [[wikipedia:Self-verification theory|self-verification theory]]
No use of embedded links to related book chapters. Embedding interwiki links links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
Basic use of images.
No use of tables.
Basic use of feature boxes.
Basic use of quizzes.
The quiz questions could be more effective as learning prompts by being embedded as single questions within each corresponding section rather than being presented as a set of questions at the end.
No use of case studies or examples.
Grammar
The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags).

The font size should be larger to make it easier to read.
The text presented on an angle is even more difficult to read.
Consider slowing down and leaving 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.
The visual communication is effectively supplemented by images.
The chapter title but not the sub-title are used in the video title - the latter would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
The chapter title but a different sub-title are used on the opening slide - matching this with the book chapter helps to tie them together and to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
Audio recording quality was a bit quiet/fuzzy - review microphone set-up.
Video recording quality was good.
