Hi Noah,

Good work so far. It's an interesting topic you've chosen. Not sure if this will help, but I came across this reference in researching my own chapter that may be useful.

Book 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. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall[edit source]

  1. Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a
  2. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits

Overview[edit source]

  1. Useful introduction; along with a case study and focus questions, this would do the trick for the Overview
  2. Consider introducing a case study or example or using an image to help engage reader interest
  3. The Overview should not have sub-headings; too long. Move detailed content in subsequent sections. The purpose of the Overview is to briefly explain the topic, engage reader interest, and establish focus questions for the chapter.

Theory – Breadth[edit source]

  1. Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained
  2. Build more strongly on other related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters)

Theory – Depth[edit source]

  1. Appropriate depth is provided about the selected theory(ies)
  2. Key citations are well used
  3. Tables and/or lists are used effectively to help clearly convey key theoretical information
  4. More examples could be useful to illustrate key concepts

Research – Key findings[edit source]

  1. Relevant research is well reviewed
  2. Excellent emphasis on effect sizes, major reviews, and/or meta-analyses

Research – Critical thinking[edit source]

  1. Excellent critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  2. Claims are referenced

Integration[edit source]

  1. Discussion of theory and research is well integrated

Conclusion[edit source]

  1. Key points are well summarised
  2. Clear take-home message(s)
  3. Overall, well balanced

Written expression – Style[edit source]

  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent
    2. Some paragraphs are overly long. Each paragraph should communicate one key idea in three to five sentences
    3. "People" is often a better term than "individuals"
    4. Use permanent, rather than relative, time references. For example, instead of "20 years ago", refer to something like "at the beginning of the 21st century". In this way, the text will survive better into the future, without needing to be rewritten.
  2. Grammar
    1. Use serial commas[1] – they are part of APA style and agenerally recommended by grammaticists. See explanatory video (1 min)
    2. Check and correct use of affect vs. effect
    3. Abbreviations
      1. Check and correct grammatical formatting for abbreviations (such as e.g., i.e., et al., etc.)
    4. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour)
    5. Figures
      1. Provide more detailed Figure captions to help connect the figure to the text
      2. Figure captions use the correct format
      3. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text using APA style
      4. Figure 3 would ideally be uploaded as a diagram rather than a photograph
    6. Tables
      1. The chapter provides several well developed tables
      2. Table captions should use APA style. See example
      3. Tables are referred to using APA style
    7. Citations are not in full APA style (7th ed.). For example:
      1. Use ampersand (&) inside parentheses and "and" outside parentheses
    8. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Publisher location is no longer used (APA style, 7th ed.)
      2. Remove spaces between volume and issue number
      3. Page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)

Written expression – Learning features[edit source]

  1. Overall, the use of learning features is excellent
  2. Excellent 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Links to non-peer-reviewed sources should be moved to the external links section
  5. Excellent use of image(s)
  6. Excellent use of table(s)
  7. Basic use of feature box(es)
  8. Basic use of quiz(zes)
  9. Good use of case studies or examples
  10. Basic use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
  11. Basic use of external links in the "External links" section. See Tutorial 02 for how to format. Are these the best resource links about this topic?

Social contribution[edit source]

  1. ~9 logged, useful, mostly moderate social contributions with direct links to evidence
