Topic development feedback

[edit source]

The topic development submission 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 for editing changes made whilst reviewing this 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.

  1. The title is correctly worded and formatted
  2. The sub-title is correctly worded and formatted
  1. Good try
  2. Revise the headings to focus more specifically on "What is the relationship between body functionality and body satisfaction?". For example, this doesn't ask about cultural, historical, developmental etc. perspectives - it asks about what a relationship between two constructs. Seek out the best psychological theory and research about this topic and report on it.
  3. Check and correct spelling and grammar. The expression of the headings could benefit from academic support, such as through Studiosity.
  4. Adopt closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings
  5. Avoid having sections with only 1 sub-heading – use 0 or 2+ sub-headings
  6. Quiz doesn't need a separate heading; instead embed quiz questions within relevant sections
  1. Add a scenario or case study into a feature box (with an image) at the start of this section to help catch reader interest
  2. A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided
  3. Use 3rd person perspective (except 1st/2nd person can work for feature boxes/scenarios)
  4. Present focus questions in a feature box at the end of this section
  1. Limited development of key points for each section, with relevant citations
  2. For sections which include sub-sections include key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings
  3. Avoid providing too much background information. Briefly summarise general concepts and provide internal wiki links to relevant book chapters and/or Wikipedia pages for further information. Then focus most of the content of this on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title.
  4. Strive for an integrated balance of theory and research, with practical examples
  5. It is unclear whether the best available psychological theory and research has been consulted in the preparation of this plan
  6. Conclusion (the most important section):
    1. Hasn't been developed
  1. Not developed
  1. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters
  2. Consider including more examples/case studies, quiz question(s), table(s) etc.
  1. OK
  2. Are there any systematic reviews about this topic?
  3. For APA referencing style, check and correct:
    1. capitalisation
    2. italicisation
    3. provide active doi hyperlinks for all journal articles
  1. See also
    1. Wikipedia links provided
    2. Use sentence casing
    3. Also link to related book chapters
  2. External links
  3. Not developed
  1. Created – minimal, but sufficient
  2. Very brief description about self provided – consider expanding
  3. 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.
  4. Link provided to book chapter
  1. Direct link(s) to evidence of one out of three types of contribution
  2. Looking ahead to the book chapter submission, see how to earn marks for social contributions.

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.

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 a basic, but sufficient chapter
  2. Under the maximum word count, so there is room to expand
  3. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits
  1. Solid
  2. Engages reader interest by introducing a case study and/or scenario with an image in a feature box
  3. Explains the problem or phenomenon
  4. Revise key points into a paragraph or shift detail in subsequent sections
  5. Clear focus questions
  1. A reasonably good range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained
  2. The key focus for this chapter should ideally have been Alleva and Tylka (2021) which is cited several times, but the central theories and arguments etc. of that article are not represented as deeply as they could or should be
  3. The relevance of the table was unclear
  4. The chapter wanders off a bit into discussion about irrelevant theory
  5. Build more strongly on other related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles(e.g., by embedding links to other chapters)
  6. Basic depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
  7. Basic use of tables, figures, and/or lists are to help convey key theoretical information
  8. Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  9. Good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts
  1. Basic review of relevant research
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal
  3. Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area? Greater emphasis on effect sizes could be helpful.
  4. Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  5. Basic critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  6. 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. pointing out critiques/counterarguments
    6. suggesting specific directions for future research
  7. Some claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Basic integration between theory and research
  2. The chapter places more emphasis on theory than on research
  1. Insufficient as a cohesive summary of the best available psychological theory and research about the topic
  2. Key points are summarised in a basic way
  3. Address the focus questions
  4. Add practical, take-home message(s)
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is basic
    2. The chapter could be improved by developing some of the bullet points into full sentences and paragraphs
    3. Some paragraphs are overly long. Communicate one key idea per paragraph in three to five sentences.
    4. Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes
    5. Abbreviations
      1. Only use abbreviations (such as e.g., i.e., et al., etc.) inside parentheses
  2. Spelling
    1. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour)
  3. Proofreading
    1. More proofreading is needed (e.g., fix punctuation and typographical errors) to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard
  4. APA style
    1. Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.
    2. Use serial commas[2] – they are part of APA style and are generally recommended by grammaticists. See explanatory video (1 min)
    3. Express numbers < 10 using words (e.g., two) and >= 10 and over using numerals (e.g., 99)
    4. Figures
      1. Figures are briefly captioned
      2. Provide more detailed Figure captions to help connect the figure to the text
      3. Refer to each Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1)
    5. Tables
      1. Use APA style for captions. See example
      2. Refer to each Table using APA style (e.g., do not use italics, check and correct capitalisation)
    6. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation[3]
      2. Check and correct use of italicisation
  1. Good use of learning features
  2. One 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 even 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. Basic use of image(s)
  5. Basic use of table(s)
  6. Very good use of feature box(es)
  7. Good use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s)
  8. Good use of case studies or examples
  9. Very good use of interwiki links in the "See also" section
    1. Use alphabetical order
  10. Good use of external links in the "External links" section

Multimedia presentation feedback

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is an insufficient presentation mainly because it does not focus specifically on the psychological theory and research about this topic: "What is the relationship between body functionality and body satisfaction?". Instead, the presentation offers a broader take on body satisfaction.
  1. An opening slide with the title and sub-title is displayed and narrated — this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation
  2. Create an engaging introduction to hook audience interest
  3. Establish a context for the presentation (e.g., by using an example or explaining why it is important), to help the viewer understand
  4. 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 somewhat addresses the topic
  3. An appropriate amount of content is presented — not too much or too little
  4. The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological theory
  5. The presentation makes insufficient use of relevant psychological research
  6. Include citations to support claims
  7. The presentation makes basic use of one or more examples or case studies or practical advice
  1. A Conclusion slide is presented with basic take-home message(s) but doesn't answer the original question
  1. The presentation makes basic use of narrated audio
  2. Audio communication is well paced
  3. Use greater intonation to enhance listener interest and engagement
  4. Audio recording quality was basic. Review microphone set-up to achieve higher recording quality. Probably an on-board microphone was used (e.g., keyboard and/or mouse clicks were audible). Consider using an external microphone.
  5. The narrated content is somewhat matched to the target topic (see content) but lacked synthesis of the best psychological research about this topic
  1. Overall, visual display quality is basic
  2. The presentation makes basic use of text and image based slides
  3. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read
  4. The amount of text presented per slide could be reduced to make it easier to read and listen at the same time
  5. The visual communication is supplemented in a basic way by images
  6. The presentation is basically produced using simple tools
  7. The visual content is somewhat matched to the target topic (see content) but lacked synthesis of the best psychological research about this topic
  1. The video title does not match the chapter title and sub-title — this would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation and be more consistent
  2. Provide an informative description to help viewers decide whether they want to watch
  3. A link to the book chapter is not provided
  4. A link from the book chapter is provided
  1. Image sources and their copyright status are communicated
    1. This presentation has violated the copyrights of image owners as images appear to have been used without permission
  2. A copyright license for the presentation is not provided
