Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2013/Colour and emotion

Comments

Hi, The first thing that comes to mind looking at colour and emotion is synesthesia. Maybe you could dedicate a heading to that? It's a pretty weird phenomenon and as far as I know is not well understood. Do colours have different meanings for blind people or people with synesthesia? Hope this helps! Best of luck!

Overall Some really interesting information is presented in this chapter - nice effort! Theory Relevant and useful theoretical perspectives were put forward. To improve further, discuss practical application of the theories, and also present some critical analysis of the constructs. Research The research that was presented was generally summarised well. The section on saturation and brightness was particularly interesting. I would encourage reading more widely to improve depth of content. Some references, such as websites, were not appropriate for an academic writing style (these can be added to an External links section). To improve further, try to retrieve information primarily from peer-reviewed literature. Written expression Written expression could be improved. While the structure is logical, the layout is simple and does not use wiki headings or include interactive features or pictures. APA style is not closely adhered to. I encourage application of APA referencing guidelines.ShaunaB (discuss • contribs)

Overall Overall a nice presentation. Well done! Structure and content A good exploration of theory is included in this presentation. Interesting research is also presented in support. The presentation follows a logical structure and flows well. Communication The presenter speaks clearly and at an appropriate pace. I would suggest that there is too much information on some slides - try to stick with brief phrases or sentences. Some illustrative examples were included, but this could also be improved. Production quality Production quality is generally good. There is some background noise throughout, which can be distracting. ShaunaB (discuss • contribs)
