Heading casing[edit source]

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for sentence casing. For example, the wikitext should be:

== Cats and mice ==

rather than

== Cats and Mice ==

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.

Title and sub-title[edit source]

  1. Wasn't provided - I've added them
  2. Authorship details removed - authorship is as per the page's editing history

User page[edit source]

  1. Created with incorrect name (User:U3189416-2) - has been moved to User:U3189416
  2. Minimal, but sufficient
  3. Description about self provided
  4. Add link to book chapter

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. Social contributions are to chapters and other aspects of the unit than the main chapter you are working on, so I've removed most of the claimed edits
  2. Summarised with indirect links to evidence.
  3. Add direct links to evidence. To do this: View the page history, select the version of the page before and after your contributions, click "compare selected revisions", and then use this website address as a direct link to evidence for listing on your user page. For more info, see Making and summarising social contributions.
  4. Use a numbered list.

Section headings[edit source]

  1. Under-developed heading structure - develop further to focus more specifically on the chapter sub-title. The focus of this chapter is on CBT and emotion. Not on CBT per se.
  2. See earlier comment about Heading casing.
  3. Sections which include sub-sections should also include an overview paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.

Key points[edit source]

  1. Overview - Consider adding:
    1. an image.
    2. a case study.
  2. Avoid providing too much background information. Briefly summarise generic concepts and provide internal wiki links to further information. Then focus most of the content on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title.
  3. Basic development of key points for each section, with relevant citations.
  4. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters.
  5. Consider including more examples/case studies.

Image[edit source]

References[edit source]

  1. References provided, but not in APA style
  2. For full APA style, use:
    1. alphabetical order
    2. correct italicisation
    3. the new recommended format for dois

Resources[edit source]

  1. See also
    1. Very good
  2. External links
    1. Use bullet-points
    2. Target an international audience; Australians only represent 0.33% of the world population.

Chapter review and feedback[edit source]

This chapter 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 through the chapter. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Chapter marks will be available later via UCLearn, along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is an insufficient chapter.
  2. The chapter could benefit from further development of the Conclusion - it should be possible to only read this section and get a good sense of why the topic is important and what is known/recommended. Note that the topic is CBT and emotion, not CBT per se.
  3. This chapter is well under the maximum word count, so there was room for more development.
  4. For additional feedback, see following comments and these copyedits.

Theory[edit source]

  1. Basic coverage of CBT theory is provided, but there is insufficient/limited coverage of emotion. The focus was an anxiety and depression, which is understandable given the common clinical application of CBT. But other aspects of emotion could be reasonably explored such as emotion awareness, emotion expression, and emotion regulation.
  2. A promising aspect were critical views about the limitations of CBT; this could be expanded. For example, what other treatments can it combined with in order to help manage emotion?
  3. What other theoretical perspectives may be useful? e.g., neuroscience understandings of the role of CBT in managing emotion?
  4. Did you actually consult the 1960s Beck texts? If not, these should be secondary citations.

Research[edit source]

  1. Some relevant research is reviewed, however more detail is needed.
  2. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
  3. When describing important research findings, consider including a bit more detail about the methodology and indicating the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.

Written expression[edit source]

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is basic, but sufficient.
    2. Some sentences are overly long; consider splitting them into shorter, separate sentences.
    3. Use third person perspective rather than first person (e.g., "we") or second person (e.g., "you") perspective[1].
    4. Avoid directional referencing (e.g., "As previously mentioned"). Instead, use section linking.
  2. Layout
    1. Avoid having sections with only one sub-section.
    2. Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
  3. Learning features
    1. Basic use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding more interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text more interactive.
    2. Basic use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding more links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
    3. Basic use of image(s). It is unclear how the image used relates to CBT and emotion.
    4. No use of table(s).
    5. Basic use of feature box(es).
    6. Basic use of quiz(zes). The quiz question mentions hypochondria but this isn't explained in the chapter.
    7. Basic use of case studies or examples. More detailed about how CBT was used and how it influenced emotion would be helpful.
    8. What are the practical, take-home messages about how CBT techniques can be used to improve emotion in everyday life?
  4. Grammar
    1. The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the [grammar?] tags).
    2. Check and make correct use of commas.
    3. Use serial commas[2] - it is part of APA style and generally recommended by grammaticists.
    4. Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[3].
    5. Check and correct use of affect vs. effect.
  5. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour; fulfillment vs. fulfilment).
  6. Proofreading
    1. More proofreading is needed to fix typos and bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard.
  7. APA style
    1. Use double- rather than single-quote marks for emphasis.
    2. Figures and tables
      1. Refer to each Table and Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1).
    3. Citations use correct APA style.
    4. References use correct APA style.
    5. References use a mixture of wiki style and APA style - use one or the other, not both.
      1. I suspect that a lot of these references were copied from elsewhere rather than constructed for this chapter, hence the mixture of styles.
      2. Most of the non-peer reviewed sources should probably be moved to external links.
  8. External links - add bullet points

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. ~1 early contribution; no engagement/contribution of note.
