Hi there, I hope you don't mind that I added a external link to Lifeline Australia. This is an interesting topic, I've noticed with footy finals just around the corner, that there has been some discussion in the media about the link between football finals, covid isolation and domestic violence. There was an article 4 days ago on the ABC News website "Footy finals during coronavirus leave experts 'very worried' about spike in domestic violence". Thought it might be worth looking at. Good luck with it all, hope everything is going well for you. --NUMBLA0371 (discuss • contribs) 12:09, 13 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

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.
Reasonable development, but could be improved by disciplining the focus on the topic (the sub-title)
Use bullet-points
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. The most important content will probably be what is currently planned for the "Abuse motivation and behaviour" section.
Consider using more motivational-behavioural language (e.g., discuss domestic violence as a collection of different types of motivated behaviours) rather than the dispositional approach which types some people as "coercise controllers", "perpetrators" etc.
Hi, this sounds very interesting, I am looking forward to reading the completed book chapter. I did some research and found this research paper that may be of use to you, either to just enhance your understanding or to add as a reference to your book chapter. Good luck with the book chapter! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4201052/ --User:Maddison gray1

The chapter could benefit from further development of the Overview and Conclusion - it should be possible to only read these sections and get a good sense of why the topic is important and what is known/recommended.
The Overview is underdeveloped. Consider:
Presenting an illustrative case study to help engage reader interest.
Developing focus questions to help guide the reader and structure the chapter.
This chapter makes insufficient use of primary, peer-reviewed sources as citations. Many claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the [factual?] tags).
The was no Conclusion.
For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits.
Overall, this chapter makes insufficient use of research.
The research that is cited is entirely Australian. Provide an international, not an Australian, perspective. The Australian context could, however, be used as a case study.
The chapter would benefit from a more developed Overview and Conclusion, with clearer focus question(s) (Overview) and take-home self-help message for each focus question (Conclusion).
Layout
Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings.
Learning features
Format bullet-points and numbered lists, per Tutorial 1.
No use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text more interactive. See example.
No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project.
Use double (not single) quotation marks "to introduce a word or phrase used as an ironic comment, as slang, or as an invented or coined expression; use quotation marks only for the first occurrence of the word or phrase, not for subsequent occurrences" (APA 7th ed., 2020, p. 159).
