Hi,
My chapter topic is similar to yours in that I am looking at the role of emotion in unconscious bias. I came across a reference that may be useful and relevant to your topic. Goldyne’s (2007) article discusses emotion and unconscious motivation, particularly how emotions (such as anger) can rise to emotionally driven unconscious motivations which conflict with the personal motivation to be objective. This can lead to potential implicit bias.
For your chapter I thought might be interesting to discuss how unconscious motivations and emotions can influence expert’s subjectivity, and the internal factors (stemming from personality or past) and external factors (stemming from the current situation) that influence motivation.
Here is the reference (and link) for the full article if you are interested
Goldyne, A. J. (2007). Minimizing the influence of unconscious bias in evaluations: A practical guide. The Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law, 35(1), 60-66. doi:10.1.1.494.3602&rep=rep1&type=pdf

Overall, this chapter provides a basic overview of relevant research.
Little Albert is an old/historical case, but the way it is written/cited implies that it is a recent case (e.g., see Little Albert experiment.
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.
Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
Overall, the quality of written expression is good to very good.
The use of tense could be improved. A lot of past tense is used. But, when talking about concepts such as id, ego, and superego, usually present tense would be preferable. "Freud saw it as central to the human mind" makes sense as past tense, but a sentence like this: "No part of the id perceived the outside world, nor could it reason (Watson, 2014)." would work better in the present tense.
Use 3rd person perspective rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you")[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes.
Layout
The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections.
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
Goo 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.
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 in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters.
Links to non-peer-reviewed sources should be moved to the external links section.
Good use of image(s).
Good 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 [grammar?] tags).

If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.
Comments about the book chapter also largely apply to this section, particularly that the focus could be improved by highlighting/making more obvious the role of the unconscious in motivation.
An appropriate amount of content is presented - not too much or too little.
Consider adding and narrating an Overview slide (e.g., with focus questions), to help orientate the viewer about what will be covered.
The presentation uses a good combination of theory and research.
The presentation could be strengthened by adding a Conclusion slide with practical, take-home messages.
The wording and/or formatting/grammar of the title/sub-title is inconsistent between the name of the video, the opening slide, and/or the book chapter.
Audio recording quality was OK. Probably the best way to deal with the glitch in this middle would be to re-record. Alternatively, try a screencasting tool.
Visual display quality was OK.
