Heading casing

[edit source]
FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for lower-cased headings (or sentence casing). For example, use:

==Cats and dogs==

rather than

==Cats and Dogs==

Hi, here are some basics notes that could help you with your wiki page. Basically VIA is a psychological measuring systems that tries to illustrate an individuals key strengths. Once an individuals strengths have been recognized, the system tries to help them improve that/those strength/s as well as understand why those characteristics are their strengths. The idea of the VIA is to improve an individuals psychologically well-being by making an individuals life more desired. Their are six virtues (Wisdom and Knowledge, Courage, Humanity, Justice, Temperance and Transcendence) each with their own minor virtues within them.

Here are some articles to get you started:

VALUES IN ACTION (VIA) CLASSIFICATION OF STRENGTHS http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.485.384&rep=rep1&type=pdf

Acceptance and Values-Based Action in Chronic Pain: A Study of Treatment Effectiveness and Process https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Lance_Mccracken2/publication/5316175_Acceptance_and_Values-Based_Action_in_Chronic_Pain_A_Study_of_Treatment_Effectiveness_and_Process/links/0912f50b660086745e000000/Acceptance-and-Values-Based-Action-in-Chronic-Pain-A-Study-of-Treatment-Effectiveness-and-Process.pdf

Furthermore, it may be worthwhile analyzing the validity and reliability of the theory. You may also want to consider where the theory arose from (Positive Psychology) and why.U3175664 (discusscontribs) 08:44, 18 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

[edit source]

Hi, I can see you have started an outline for this chapter and your topic looks very interesting. I wonder if you could discuss the application of values in treatment for different mental health conditions. I know there is research supporting value work in motivational interviewing which can be applied to all sorts of mental health concerns. It may even be worth looking at the application in a population with low self-esteem and values that have been impacted by their condition e.g. eating disorders, drug and alcohol addiction.

I have included some articles that may assist if you think this is a good suggestion.

An Examination of Adolescents’ Values in a Motivational Interviewing-based Obesity Intervention

Hope this helps :)

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

  1. The title is correctly worded and formatted
  1. See earlier comment about Heading casing
  2. Promising 3-level heading structure
  3. Structure could be improved by:
    1. Removing the definitional sub-headings and incorporating the planned content into the general introduction to the section (i.e., before the first sub-heading)
    2. Removing sub-headings from the Conclusion

– could benefit from further development by expanding the structure

    1. Probably the Introduction heading isn't needed - consider incorporating this material into the Overview and/or the What is the VIA framework sections instead.
    2. Comparison with DSM isn't required to address the question but could be an interesting way to address the theory/research about the VIA
  1. Good alignment between focus questions and heading structure
  2. If retaining the comparison with DSM, consider adding a related focus question
  1. A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section
  2. Add an image to the scenario or case study to help attract reader interest
  3. Add a brief, evocative description of the problem/topic
  4. Focus questions are aligned with sub-title and top-level headings
  1. Excellent – key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations
  2. There seems to be good coverage of theory, however, strive to balance the content with critical review of relevant research
  3. Excellent emphasis on examples/applications
  4. Note to use APA style 7th edition for citations with three or more authors (i.e., FirstAuthor et al., year) and alphabetical ordering of multiple citations
  5. Conclusion (the most important section):
    1. Well developed
    2. Underway

  1. Good
  2. OK
  3. For APA referencing style, check and correct:
    1. italicisation
    2. doi formatting
    3. page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-)
  1. See also
    1. One of two links provided
  2. External links
    1. Not developed
  1. Very good
  2. Description about self provided
  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. 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.

Overall

[edit source]
  1. Overall, this is a reasonably good chapter. It makes very good use of psychological theory and research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem. # The Overview, Conclusion, use of learning features, and social contributions could be improved.
  2. The title and sub-title were incorrect (fixed)
  3. Very good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims
  4. In some places, better use could be made of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  5. Over the maximum word count. Content beyond 4,000 words has been ignored for marking purposes.
  6. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits
  1. Underdeveloped
  2. Engage reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box with a relevant image
  3. Briefly explains the psychological problem or phenomenon; provide more detail
  4. Add focus questions in a feature box
  1. An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained
  2. This chapter does not build on related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles (e.g., by embedding interwiki links for key terms)
  3. Insightful depth is provided about relevant theory(ies)
  4. Use tables, figures, and/or lists to help convey key theoretical information
  5. Key citations are well used
  6. In some places, there is insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  7. Very good use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts
  1. Excellent review of relevant research
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal
  3. In some places, there is insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  4. Reasonably good critical thinking about relevant research is evident
  5. Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by:
    1. describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies
    2. considering the strength of relationships
    3. acknowledging limitations
    4. pointing out critiques/counterarguments
    5. suggesting specific directions for future research
  6. Some claims lack sufficient citation (e.g., see the [factual?] tags)
  1. Excellent integration between theory and research
  1. Reasonably good summary and conclusion
  2. Too long - goes over the maximum word count
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good
    2. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. Communicate one idea per paragraph using three to five sentences.
    3. 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
  2. Layout
    1. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading – use 0 or 2+ sub-headings
    2. Use the default heading style (e.g., remove additional italics, bold, and/or change in font size)
    3. See earlier comments about heading casing
    4. Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see [Provide more detail] tags)

    3. Abbreviations
      1. Only use abbreviations such as e.g., i.e., et al., etc. inside parentheses, otherwise spell them out
  4. APA style
    1. Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.
    2. Citations use basic APA style (7th ed.). To improve:
      1. If there are three or more authors, cite the first author followed by et al., then year. For example, either:
        1. in-text, Smith et al. (2020), or
        2. in parentheses (Smith et al., 2020)
      2. Use ampersand (&) inside parentheses and "and" outside parentheses
      3. List multiple citations in alphabetical order by first author surname

  4. No use of figure(s)
  5. No use of table(s)
