Feedback[edit source]

Hi, I saw that you were looking for feedback. I don't have much, its looking really good overall. 1. I think the case studies work well and I like how they're linked by all being about the same person. 2. I think that you missed referring to figure 3 in the text. 3. You had quite a few apostrophe mistakes, like individual's where you needed individuals'. I changed all the ones I could find but I may have missed some. I hope this helps!

How to improve self-efficacy[edit source]

Hi! Really liking how it's coming along! May I suggest to look into adding a section on improving self-efficacy? Can't wait to see the rest of your chapter! --U3169316 (discusscontribs) 07:39, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Culture and self-efficacy[edit source]

Hello! This chapter is really interesting, I like the specific topics you have covered about the variations in self-efficacy (gender, culture,etc.)I was wondering if you have found anything about the differences in individualistic and collectivist cultures regarding self-efficacy?--U3188019 (discusscontribs) 00:54, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Feedback=[edit source]

Looks good Amberley!

I made a few minor edits which you can see in the page history. The case study is excellent and really helped me understand what you found when researching.

I did notice some sweeping statements were made as if they were well-known facts, but they didn't have references. Perhaps you could squeeze a reference in if you have words to spare. (eg. In the SES section, you wrote 'ESE is a widely utilised sub-sector of self-efficacy theory and is a pivotal aspect of motivation and emotion theories and concepts.'). That's all I have - it's a really good chapter!

Some general suggestions[edit source]

Hey! Your chapter is looking really well developed and you’ve definitely put a lot of work in to it. I’ve just noticed a couple of things that could be fixed. • Your internal links for self-efficacy are inconsistent. I personally would just internally link the first time you refer to it and remove any following links. • “Synonymous with ESE. Where both terms are viewed as alternative labels for one another.“ – This feels like one sentence split into two. Maybe try using a linking word to begin your second sentence to improve flow. • In your first paragraph in the culture section, I would internally link the first time you mention culture as opposed to the section. Other than those things, your chapter looks great!

Thanks for the in-depth feedback. I have utilised them all in my chapter, thanks!

Some general suggestions[edit source]

Hi Amberley, Your chapter is looking really good - it's organised and covered really well and answers the question. I just have a few suggestions

  • Your chapter starts with a direct quote from Bandura - this would usually require a page number to be included in APA formatting.
  • Your figure 1 has two captions - one within the image and one outside. This is confusing. Did you create this yourself? If so I would edit the image to remove the caption 'figure 5..." and add some details in the caption for figure 1 relating to the source. If you are using someone else's image I would consider re-doing this yourself, or adding a reference in the caption to where you have gotten it from.
  • Under Age you have a reference: as (cited in Alessandri et al., 2015), but no information as to who is being cited.
  • Where citing multiple references these should be listed in alphabetical order. E.g under learning you have: (Millioni et al., 2015; Alessandri et al., 2009)
  • Check the capitalisation of journal titles in your references. For example: Association Between Adolescent Suicide Ideation, Suicide Attempts and Emotional Self-Efficacy

I hope this helps! U3025324 (discusscontribs) 04:09, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

{{MEBF/2020 |1=

  1. Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
  2. A key strength was that the chapter embraces the Wikiversity platform (e.g., excellent use of in-text links) and provides excellent embedded case study progression to illustrate key points.
  3. The main area for potential improvement is in the quality of written expression.
  4. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits.

|2=

  1. Relevant theoretical perspectives are well selected, described, integrated, and explained. A key strength of this chapter is its comprehensive theoretical coverage.
  2. What was labelled "physiological" I think might be better described as demographic or individual differences - I've changed this in some places.
  3. Perhaps the cognitive aspects could be unpacked a bit further because, at the end of the study, SE comes to down to cognitions.

|3=

  1. Relevant research is reviewed and discussed in relation to theory, but some key research reviews or studies could be considered in more detail
  2. 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.
  3. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.

|4=

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is good to very good.
    2. "People" is often a better term than "individuals"; similarly "participants" is preferred to "subjects".
    3. Avoid directional referencing (e.g., "As previously mentioned"). Instead, use section linking.
    4. The chapter benefited from a well developed Overview and Conclusion, with clear focus question(s). Some more practical, take-home/self-help messages in the Conclusion could be helpful.
  2. Layout
    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections.
    2. Avoid having sections with only one sub-section.
  3. Learning features
    1. Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia and Wikiversity articles.
    2. Very good use of image(s).
    3. Good use of table(s).
    4. Very good use of feature box(es).
    5. No use of quiz(zes).
    6. Excellent use of a progressive case study.
  4. Grammar
    1. Use serial commas[1] - it is part of APA style and generally recommended by grammaticists.
  5. APA style
    1. Use double- rather than single-quote marks for emphasis.
    2. Citations are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Multiple citations in parentheses should be listed in alphabetical order by first author surname.
      2. Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets.
    3. References use correct APA style.
    4. References are not in full APA style. For example:

|5=

  1. ~30 logged, useful, social contributions with direct links to evidence
  2. Thankyou for your excellent social contributions - much appreciated! Bonus marks added {{smile}
