Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2020/Pill-testing motivation at music festivals

Gender differences

Hi there. This sound like a very interesting topic. I was wondering if you had considered gender differences? I am not sure if there is much research out there at this current stage however maybe something to mention for further research (e.g. does there need to be different motivation methods to encourage pill testing behaviours in men and women?)U3191761 (discuss • contribs) 07:28, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Pill-testing in Europe

Hi. I suggest that providing information regarding pill-testing in European countries such the Portugal, UK & Switzerland. This could be a useful way to gain insight into how pill-testing at music festivals has shaped attitudes in the community around drug-use as these countries have allowed pill-testing for quite some time in comparison to Australia. I look forward to reading your book chapter later on. BirdU3171984 (discuss • contribs) 23:26, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Comments

Hi, this is an interesting topic. Perhaps you could talk about government legislation and the related controversy between political parties, as well as sniffer dogs and police presence and related cases on people overdosing or acting irrationally out of fear.

Hey there! This is a great and controversial topic within the music festival industry! Adding on to the comment above, I think it would be great to include how Gladys Berejiklian (NSW premier) is adamant in not including pill testing at festivals, but rather increasing police presence. I believe that this has a large impact on the consumption of potentially lethal substances and further increases fear of authority at music festivals. From this, some music festivals were also seen to be struggling to afford the forced increase of police presence (prior to Covid-19). This article may be helpful in demonstrating Gladys' stance on the issue: https://www.afr.com/politics/nsw-to-crackdown-on-music-festivals-again-20191016-p5312g#:~:text=Premier%20Gladys%20Berejiklian%20said%20the,prepare%20a%20safety%20management%20plan.&text=The%20state%20government%20in%20February,deaths%20in%20as%20many%20months.

News articals

Hi, I am excited to view this page once complete. I have been following some of the news articles around pill testing over the last few years and suggest you have a look into these articles as well, it might be a good way to see the different arguments for and against.

Social influence

Hi, I'm looking forward to reading your completed chapter. Something that I thought might be interesting to consider for this book chapter is the influence of social norms and peer influence as festivals are very social events. Good luck ! ---U3192645 (discuss • contribs) 07:32, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Additional theories

Hi! You have a very interesting topic. Some other interesting theories you could explore would be Drive Theory or Expectancy value theory of achievement motivation. Looking forward to reading your book chapter once it is done! U3177230 (discuss • contribs) 07:57, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Title/Sub-title

Hi!

This seems like it will be an interesting topic!

I did notice, your title and subtitle need to be seperated!

Title/Sub-title

Hey there Really intersting topic, I think it would really help for you to try and compress a lot of the information your trying to presnet, with only 4000 words on a large idea. Maybe have a look at using analogy boxes and compressing ideas into boxes so to make the ideas stand out better. thanks --Oscar3176498 (discuss • contribs) 02:59, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Topic development feedback

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 Excellent User page Excellent - used effectively Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn. This is not required, but it can be useful to interlink your professional networks. Social contribution Excellent - summarised with direct link(s) to evidence. Section headings General comment: There is a challenge with this topic that there may be limited peer-reviewed research specifically about motivations towards pill-testing, however it is important to strongly represent any existing theory/research on the target topic. To that end, the most important proposed section to expand is: "How do we motivate people to engage in pill-testing?". The prior content can reasonably be abbreviated/summarised to allow for this expansion. Also consider the pros and cons of pill-testing e.g,. Does providing pill testing at festivals increase intention to use Ecstasy?. Basically, do your best at reviewing and using specific theory and research about the phenomenon. Where that is lacking, broaden to include more general theory and research. Be prepared to be selective about what is included - probably better off using a small number of theories well than spreading too thin across many theories. Promising 3-level heading structure - perhaps could benefit from being simplified to a 2-level structure. Aim for an international perspective, although specific country approaches could be used as interesting case studies. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading - use 0 or 2+ sub-headings. Avoid sub-sections in the Overview and Conclusion. Key points Textbook isn't a great reference; instead access and cite primary, peer-reviewed sources. It is really important to identify the best available academic work about motivations towards pill-testing. Build the chapter content from this knowledge. Avoid providing too much background information. Briefly summarise general concepts and provide internal wiki links to other book chapters and/or Wikipedia pages for further information. Then focus most of the content of this chapter directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title. Expand theory and research that is specifically applicable to the behaviour of interest, but reduce general background theory - e.g., I'm not convinced that Maslow's hierarchy of needs is amongst the most relevant/applicable theories, as well-known as it is as a general motivational theory. Key points are reasonably well developed for each section, with citations. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters. Consider including more examples/case studies. Direct quotes need page numbers (APA style) - even better, write in your own words. Avoid overcapitalisation (APA style) - more info Write using 3rd person perspective. Image An image (figure) is presented. Caption uses APA style. could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text. Cite each figure at least once in the main text. Figure 2 was removed because it lacked an appropriate copyright license. References Reasonably good. Remove image citations - the licensing details are available by clicking on an image. For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation Resources See also Also link to relevant Wikipedia pages External links Target an international audience; Australians only represent 0.33% of the world population Otherwise excellent

Adding a Table

Hi, this topic seems really fascinating. Just a suggestion that you could use a table to summarize the external and internal factors that impact pill taking in your illicit drugs and music festivals section. Here is a Wikiversity link to table templates.--U3190415 (discuss • contribs) 00:46, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Some idea's

Hi,
This topic sounds really interesting. I was thinking you could also address the issues with pill testing along with the advantages. While people can be made aware of what they are taking, they are not told if what they are taking is too much. Many people have overdosed even after pill testing. here is an article: https://www1.racgp.org.au/newsgp/clinical/hard-line-approach-to-pill-testing-%E2%80%98failing%E2%80%99-to-sa There is also the thought of pill testing to expand outside of music festivals, what do you think of this? Here is another article I found interesting: https://ndarc.med.unsw.edu.au/blog/six-reasons-Australia-should-pilot-pill-testing-party-drugs Good luck!

Reframing overview

Hello! I really enjoy the scope of your topic, you've done a great job at explaining the motivation behind pill testing. One suggestion that may be of interest is to reframe the overview point "Brief introduction to how can specific motivation theories and research help motivate people to engage in pill-testing." Something like "Brief introduction of how motivation theory and research explain pill-testing engagement" may be a bit more clear and concise. --U3180567 (discuss • contribs) 05:02, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Heading casing

FYI, the recommended Wikiversity heading style uses sentence casing. For example: Self-determination theory rather than Self-Determination Theory Here's an example chapter with correct heading casing: Growth mindset development -- Jtneill - Talk - c 07:21, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Chapter review and feedback

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 Overall, this is a very good chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits. Theory Relevant theories are well selected, described, integrated, and explained. Perhaps a more proactive case study can be provided to illustrate how the proposed theories could be implemented to enhance pill-testing motivation. Research Relevant research is well reviewed and discussed in relation to theory. A critical perspective is evident. Written expression Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is very good. Internationalise: Write for an international, not just a domestic audience. Australians make up only 0.32% of the world human population. The chapter benefited from a well developed Conclusion, with clear take-home messages. 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. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading - use 0 or 2+ sub-headings. See earlier comments about heading casing. Learning features Use in-text wiki links for Wikiversity and Wikipedia sources, rather than external links, per Tutorial 1. Good 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. See example. Minimal 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. Excellent use of image(s). Basic use of table(s). Excellent use of feature box(es). Excellent use of quiz(zes). Grammar The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags). Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[1]. Use serial commas[2] - it is part of APA style and generally recommended by grammaticists. Here's a 1 min. explanatory video. Spelling Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour). Proofreading Replace double spaces with single spaces. APA style In general, do not capitalise the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.. Figures and tables Use APA style for Figure captions. See example. Use APA style for Table captions. See example. Citations are not in full APA style. For example: If there are three or more authors, cite the first author followed by et al., then year. For example, either: in-text, Smith et al. (2020), or in parentheses (Smith et al., 2020) References are not in full APA style. For example: Check and correct use of capitalisation. Check and correct use of italicisation. Social contribution ~4 logged, useful, social contributions with direct links to evidence

Social Contribuiton

Hi there, I really enjoyed reading through your book chapter, I found that the case study made your topic become clear, and the question below the case study was very useful as it makes the reader think about what they have just read. I feel a lot more familiar around the topic of pill testing now that I have read your chapter, Excellent Job. --U3187388 (discuss • contribs) 08:30, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
