neurotypical vs neurodivergent

Hey Deen, super interesting topic (and page!)

Food for thought, have you looked at/is there any research regarding how dopamine effects social behaviour between neurotypical people and neurodivergent people? Could be interesting to look into since nurodivergent people (specially ADHD) tend to have a dopamine deficiency. U3173387 (discuss • contribs) 14:50, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

1. Title The title is correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings Promising 3-level heading structure – could benefit from further development (e.g.., "interaction" repeated e.g,. what role does dopamine in social interaction) I like the focus on dysfunction - that could be one way to go - i.e., how does D facilitate functional/dysfunctional social interactions Remove notes from headings Consider adopting closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings 3. Overview Excellent - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section Add an image to the scenario or case study to help attract reader interest A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings is recommended 4. Key points Key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations For sections which include sub-sections, include the key points for an overview paragraph prior to branching into the sub-headings Good balance of theory and research Conclusion (the most important section): Underway 5. Figure A relevant figure is presented, captioned, and cited Citation of figures should refer to "Figure X" rather than "figure X" (APA style) Consider increasing image size from to make it easier to view 6. Learning feature Excellent use of 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) Promising use of table(s) Consider including more examples/case studies, quiz question(s) etc. 7. References Excellent For APA referencing style, check and correct: page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) 8. Resources See also Excellent External links Excellent 9.

Overall Overall, this is a very good to excellent chapter. It makes excellent use of psychological theory and very good use of research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem. The main potential area for improvement is the style (quality of written expression) Reasonably good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims Use of academic, peer-reviewed citations could be improved in some places (e.g., see the tags) Move embedded external links into the References section as dois and provide APA style citations For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Well developed I've done some copyediting Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box with a relevant image Image generation details have been shifted to File:Social interaction.webp Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon The last part of the problem description is a little complicated Clear focus questions Theory An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Builds effectively on related chapters and Wikipedia articles Insightful depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Effective use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help clearly convey key theoretical information Key citations are well used There are some places which could benefit from better use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Excellent use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Excellent review of relevant research Excellent critical thinking about relevant research is evident Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by: considering the strength of relationships Integration Excellent integration between theory and research Conclusion Very good Key points are well summarised Add practical, take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is reasonably good 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 Avoid directional referencing (e.g., "As previously mentioned"). Instead: it is, most often, not needed at all, or use section linking Layout The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections Grammar The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags) Check and make correct use of commas Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')[2] Check and correct use of affect vs. effect Consider using a grammar checking tool Abbreviations Once an abbreviation has been established (e.g., PTSD), use it consistently aftwarwards Spelling Some words are misspelt (e.g., see the tags). Spell-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages. Use Australian spelling (e.g., hypothesize vs. hypothesise; behavior vs. behaviour) Proofreading More proofreading is needed (e.g., fix punctuation and typographical errors) to bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard APA style Express numbers < 10 using words (e.g., two) and >= 10 and over using numerals (e.g., 99) Figures Figures are very well well captioned Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text, except for Figure 1 Tables Table captions use APA style or wiki style Citations use very good APA style (7th ed.) Use ampersand (&) inside parentheses and "and" outside parentheses References use excellent APA style: Use dois instead of external hyperlinks Learning features Excellent use of learning features Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles Excellent use of image(s) Excellent use of table(s) Excellent use of feature box(es) Excellent use of case studies or examples Excellent use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Move non-Wikiversity/Wikipedia links to References or External links Excellent use of external links in the "External links" section Social contribution ~10 logged, useful mostly moderate social contributions mostly with direct links to evidence In addition, a couple of images were contributed to Wikimedia Commons

Overall Overall, this is a reasonably good presentation Overview 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. Create an engaging introduction to hook audience interest (e.g., by introducing a case study or scenario) A context for the presentation is established Consider asking focus questions that lead to take-away messages. This will help to focus and discipline the presentation. Content Comments about the book chapter may also apply to this section The presentation addresses the topic The presentation makes excellent use of relevant psychological theory The presentation makes basic use of relevant psychological research Ideally, make more explicit use of research The presentation makes very good use of citations to support claims Use alphabetical order for citations (APA style) The presentation makes basic use of one or more examples The presentation provides basic practical advice Conclusion The conclusion provides a very good summary of the most relevant psychological theory and research about this topic Audio The presentation makes basic use of narrated audio Consider slowing down to help the listener to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point Basic intonation Consider using greater intonation to enhance listener interest and engagement Audio recording quality was excellent The narrated content is well matched to the target topic Video Overall, visual display quality is reasonably good/basic The presentation makes reasonably good use of text and image based slides Some of the font size could be larger to make it easier to read The amount of text presented per slide makes it easy to read and listen at the same time The visual communication is supplemented in a basic way by relevant images and/or diagrams The presentation is well produced using simple tools The visual content is well matched to the target topic Meta-data The chapter title is used, but the sub-title (or a shortened version of it) is not used, as the name of the presentation. The sub-title (or an abbreviation of the sub-title that fits within the 100 character limit) would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. A brief written description of the presentation is provided. Expand.
