Vicarious Embarassment

Hi Alexandra,

I'm doing my topic for Motivation and Emotion on Vicarious Embarassment - a few times in my chapter I mention how feelings of discrepancy can lead to embarassment instead turning into feelings of shame. I just thought you might find it potentially interesting, and if you'd like to discuss it more or mention it in your chapter I would encourage you to do so!

Thanks,

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 12:14, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Title The title is correctly worded and formatted The sub-title is correctly worded and formatted Headings See earlier comment about Heading casing Promising 3-level heading structure – could benefit from further development by rationalising the structure (e.g., reduce to 2-levels? remove cultural considerations (not part of core topic, make some of the top level headings more descriptive?)) Adopt closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings Remove links from headings - use links for the first mention of these key words in normal text Overview Direct quotes need page numbers (APA style) - even better, write in your own words Add a scenario or case study into a feature box (with an image) at the start of this section to help catch reader interest Add a brief, evocative description of the problem/topic Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended Key points Need to address the question - how does the SDT help to explain emotion? Basic development of key points for each section, with relevant citations Strive for an integrated balance of theory and research, with practical examples Conclusion (the most important section): Underway 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 Learning feature Promising use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Consider including more examples/case studies, quiz question(s), table(s) etc. References Good For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation Resources See also Excellent External links One of two links provided Use sentence casing User page Very good Description about self provided Consider linking to your eportfolio page and/or any other professional online profile or resume such as LinkedIn.
