Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Solitary confinement

Initial suggestions

@Ubaldo111: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:

• Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Forensic
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Self
• Also search past book chapters for related topics
• For the topic development, consider:
  • What psychological theory(ies) can help to understand and explain this topic?
  • What is the main research in this area?Let me know if I can do anything else to support the development of this chapter.

Heading casing

Hi Ubaldo111. 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 09:36, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.

1. Title The title is correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings Excellent – Well developed 2-level heading structure. Meaningful headings clearly relate directly to the core topic. Good alignment between focus questions and heading structure 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 A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Focus questions are aligned with sub-title and top-level headings I've simplified/reworded the focus questions I've adjusted from future to present tense 4. Key points Promising development of key points for each section, with relevant citations Avoid overly emotive language Use bullet points (per Tutorial 2) Use APA style 7th edition for citation formatting There seems to be reasonably good coverage of theory, however, strive to balance the content with critical review of relevant research, with illustrative 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?) 5. Figure A relevant figure is presented and captioned Cite each figure at least once in the main text 6. 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. Also link key concepts, not just case study biography pages. Promising use of example(s)/case study(ies) Connect the scenario(s) with motivation and emotion to help illustrate psychological science about this topic Be wary of overdoing case studies - they are useful if they are used to clearly illustrate key points in the text Consider including quiz question(s), table(s) etc. 7. References Very good Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation doi formatting 8. Resources See also Very good Rename links so that they are more user friendly (see Tutorial 02) External links Excellent 9. User page Excellent – used effectively Very good Good Created – minimal, but sufficient Not created – see Tutorial 02 Brief description about self provided – consider expanding 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. Link provided to book chapter 10. Social contribution Excellent – at least three different types of contributions with direct link(s) to evidence
