Suggestion

[edit source]

Hi there ! Your page is looking really well thought out and organised. I did not want to make any changes without your permission but I suggest that you change the phrase "mentally healthy workplace" as that does not seem to flow well. I suggest you use "healthy workplace", the readers should already be aware that you mean healthy in terms of mental health. Just a suggestion though. You have done an incredibly job ! Well done :) U3210431 (discusscontribs) 04:28, 5 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi u3210431
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I completely agree that it is a tongue twister, but I was reluctant to change, since the chapter is about mental health training at workplaces. I will take your suggestion and change it. Thanks once again. ArtOfHappiness (discusscontribs) 07:30, 5 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi, your chapter is looking great, it's clear and concise, and provides helpful information. I only have one recommendation. It may be beneficial to add some more interactive parts to your chapter, such as a short quiz. I have also gone through your page and added some wiki links to provide definitions for words a layperson may not understand. Feel free to remove any of the links I added. :) --GabbieUC (discusscontribs) 04:19, 14 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Suggest for Future of WMHT section

[edit source]

Perhaps one thing you could look into are online workplace mental health training resources, such as LivingWorks START program: https://www.livingworks.com.au/programs/livingworks-start/

I have noted that you mentioned issues with the one-size fits all approach of current training, and accessibility, so an online approach may be worth suggesting for future of WMHT.

Good luck! U3217287 (discusscontribs) 01:54, 15 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hi Annabelle
Thanks for letting me know. I was surprised that their services were not available in the ACT. Upon closer look, Livingworks offer the same services as the Mental Illness Education ACT (MIEACT). I volunteer with MIEACT, and we cover 98% of schools in Canberra. From next year we are planning to role out a new program to reach out to primary school children. I am playing a significant role in designing the program and its marketing strategy. MIEACT also provides information and education sessions at many government departments and private corporate entities.
It is my understanding that programs of MIEACT or Livingworks are useful tools for reducing stigma but not for building resilience amongst people.
I am at the word limit for this chapter, maybe later I can mention about developing online training programs to specifically target vulnerable individuals. I assume, like Livingworks and MIEACT these programs must be free and have widespread awareness. I can see a huge advantage of such an approach, people can access and train themselves in their own time and in their own private setting. This setting will also address stigma. I will have a discussion about this idea in our next MIEACT meeting.
Thanks a lot, really appreciate your input.
Kind regards

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is a very good chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
  2. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits.
  1. Well developed Overview.
  2. Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon.
  3. Engages reader interest by introducing a case study and/or example and/or using an image.
  4. Clear focus question(s).
  1. A good range of relevant theories are considered.
  2. Builds somewhat on related chapters.
  1. Basic depth is provided about the selected theory(ies).
  2. Probably there is too much about WMH (there is already a chapter about this), to the detriment of depth of coverage about WMHT.
  3. Key citations are well used.
  4. Tables and/or lists are used effectively to help clearly convey key theoretical information.
  5. Some useful examples are provided to illustrate theoretical concepts.
  1. Basic overview of relevant research.
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal.
  3. Some claims lack sufficient citation (e.g., see the [factual?] tags).
  4. Greater emphasis on effect sizes, major reviews, and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
  1. Basic critical thinking about research is evident.
  2. Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by:
    1. describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies
    2. discussing the direction of relationships
    3. considering the strength of relationships
    4. acknowledging limitations
    5. suggesting specific directions for future research
  1. There is reasonably good integration between theory and research.
  1. Key points are well summarised.
  2. Clear take-home message(s).
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent.
    2. Some of the language is a bit too strong (e.g., "must").
    3. Internationalise: Write for an international, rather than domestic, audience. Australians make up only 0.32% of the world human population.
  2. Layout
    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections.
  3. Grammar, spelling, and proofreading are excellent; only very minor errors noted.
  4. APA style is excellent
    1. I've made the doi links into active hyperlinks, to provide 1-click access
    2. Figures
    3. Figures are very well used.
      1. Figures are very well captioned.
      2. Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text. Use lower case for e.g., (see Figure 1).
    4. Tables
      1. Tables are used effectively.
      2. Table captions should use APA style. See example.
      3. Refer to each Table at least once within the main text (e.g., see Table 1).
    5. Citations use correct APA style.
    6. There is probably too much emphasis on web-pages and too little on academic peer-reviewed sources.
    7. References use correct APA style.
    8. Ideally, dois should be active hyperlinks.
  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. Limited 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. Excellent use of image(s).
  5. Excellent use of table(s).
  6. Excellent use of feature box(es).
  7. No use of quiz(zes).
  8. Excellent use of case studies or examples.
  9. Excellent of interwiki links in the "See also" section.
  10. Excellent use of external links in the "External links" section.
  1. ~9 logged, useful, moderate to major social contributions with direct links to evidence.
  2. ~15 Wiki Commons image uploads. Thankyou very much. I've added one of those images to the University of Canberra Wikipedia article. A couple of the images were deleted due to lack of sufficient information.

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is an excellent presentation
  1. An opening slide with the title is displayed. Also display and narrate the sub-title — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation.
  2. This presentation has a very engaging introduction to hook audience interest
  3. A context for the topic is established
  4. The importance of this topic is explained
  5. Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation.
  1. Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section
  2. The presentation addresses the topic reasonably. However, note that the presentation probably better covers "workplace mental health intervention" than "workplace mental health training". These areas are closely related, but also differ. The main different I think is that WMHT involves formalised training of managers and workers to raise awareness, reduce stigma, increase healthy conversations, and assist people in exercising early intervention etc.
  3. An appropriate amount of content is presented — not too much or too little
  4. The presentation is very well structured
  5. The presentation makes excellent use of relevant psychological theory
  6. The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological research
  7. The presentation includes citations
  8. The presentation makes excellent use of one or more examples or case studies or practical advice
  9. The presentation provides practical, easy to understand information
  10. The presentation is solution-focused
  1. A Conclusion slide is presented with excellent/very good/good/basic take-home message(s)
  2. The presentation could be strengthened by expanding on the take-home message (e.g., answers to more than one focus question)
  3. What are the practical take-home message(s) that we can use to help improve our everyday lives based on the best available psychological theory and research about this topic?
  4. The presentation could be strengthened by adding a Conclusion slide with practical, take-home messages
  5. The Conclusion did not fit within the time limit
  1. The audio is fun, easy to follow, and interesting to listen to
  2. Excellent intonation enhances listener interest and engagement
  3. The narration is well polished
  4. Audio recording quality was OK. There are some weird crackles. Review microphone set-up to achieve higher recording quality.
  1. Overall, visual display quality is very good
  2. The presentation makes effective use of text and image based slides
  3. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read
  4. Consider using a sans-serif typeface to make the text easier to read
  5. The amount of text presented per slide makes it easy to read and listen at the same time
  6. The visual communication is effectively supplemented by images and/or diagrams
  7. The presentation is well produced using simple tools
  1. The correct chapter title and sub-title are missing from the name of the presentation — this would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation
  2. A written description of the presentation is provided
  3. Links to and from the book chapter are provided
  1. Image sources and their copyright status are communicated
  2. A copyright license for the presentation is not provided
