Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2023/Equine therapy and emotion

Initial suggestions

@SoSilverLibby: Thanks for tackling this topic.

Some initial suggestions:

• Consider situating "equine therapy" in the broader context of adventure/wilderness/nature therapy and also animal therapy
• Also check out other psychotherapy chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work
• What psychological theories can help to understand? What is the main research in this area?

Let me know if I can do anything else as you go along.

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 11:39, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Title The wording and/or capitalisation of the title is incorrect. Be consistent with the book table of contents. The wording and/or capitalisation of the sub-title is incorrect. Be consistent with the book table of contents. Headings See earlier comment about Heading casing Promising, but overly complicated 2-level heading structure – consider simplifying Don't try to do too much - cut to the chase; zero on the sub-title question Adopt closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings Remove author names from headings Be very selective about the theories - only choose the best/most relevant theories Overview Add a scenario or case study into a feature box (with an image) at the start of this section to help catch reader interest A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Promising focus questions Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended Key points Partial development of key points for some sections, with some relevant citations For sections which include sub-sections include key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings 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. Strive for an integrated balance of theory and research, with practical examples Suggest turning an interview or two into case studies in feature boxes that illustrate key points from the psychological theory and research and include link to interview Conclusion (the most important section): Hasn't been developed What might the take-home, practical messages be? (What are the answer(s) to the question(s) in the sub-title and/or focus questions?) Figure A relevant figure is presented and captioned Cite each figure at least once in the main text Consider increasing image size from to make it easier to view Learning feature Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Promising use of example(s)/case study(ies) - but only what is on the wiki page will count for marking purposes, not external content Consider including more quiz question(s), table(s) etc. References OK Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation doi formatting make doi hyperlinks active (i.e., clickable) page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) Full journal names are needed Resources See also Excellent Very good OK One of out of two links provided Use bullet-points (see Tutorial 02) Use sentence casing Rename links so that they are more user friendly (see Tutorial 02) Include source in brackets after link Include "(Book chapter, year)" after links to other motivation and emotion book chapters on Wikiversity Also link to related book chapters Also link to relevant Wikipedia pages Not developed External links Excellent Very good OK Use bullet-points (see Tutorial 02) Use sentence casing Rename links so that they are more user friendly (see Tutorial 02) Include source in brackets after link Only include links directly related to the sub-title Target an international audience; Australians only represent 0.33% of the world population Not developed Good choice of links, but poorly formatted (see Tutorial 02) User page Description about self provided 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. Add link to book chapter Social contribution Excellent – at least three different types of contributions with direct link(s) to evidence At least one contribution has been made and summarised with indirect link(s) to evidence If adding the second or subsequent link to a page (or a talk/discussion page), create a direct link like / Add direct links to evidence. To do this: View the page history, select the version of the page before and after your contributions, click "compare selected revisions", and then use this website address as a direct link to evidence for listing on your user page. For more info, see Making and summarising social contributions. Great to see you on X (formally known as Twitter)! Use a numbered list (see Tutorial 02) Add a brief summary of each contribution None summarised on user page with direct link(s) to evidence – this was covered in Tutorial 03. Looking ahead to the book chapter submission, see how to earn marks for social contributions.
