Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2019/Exam stress

Comments

Hi, my book chapter is on the relationship of junk food and psychological distress. I include some emotional theories which are related to food consumption as a result of emotions. Might be helpful for your last incomplete section :) https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Motivation_and_emotion/Book/2019/Junk_food_and_psychological_distress --U3141421 (discuss • contribs) 12:13, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Could include helpful links to phone applications to help decrease stress such as Headspace and Calm.--U3141421 (discuss • contribs) 08:57, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi, would like to suggest a method to reduce stress called 4-7-8 deep breathing technique, that you might like to consider adding to your book chapter. here is the link to read further about it https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/324417.php. All the best with the chapter.--U3151962 (discuss • contribs) 07:55, 12 October 2019 (UTC)

I like your exam stress topic a lot, as so many people deal with it. I am talking about humor in my chapter, and I read an interesting study done. They talked about how students' test anxiety was reduced when the teachers added in an extra multiple choice option that was just silly and outrageous. It was a very interesting study, and I think you would find it intriguing given your chapter topic. You can find the PDF here: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/87567550009595834.

Overall Overall, this is a very good chapter. Including more examples or case studies would be helpful. The chapter could benefit from further development of the Overview and Conclusion - it should be possible to only read these sections and get a good sense of why the topic is important and what is known/recommended. For additional feedback, see following comments and these copyedits. Theory Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained. Theories could have been considered in more depth. More examples or case studies would be useful. Research Relevant research is well reviewed and discussed in relation to theory. Research could have been considered in more detail Some claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags). When describing important research findings, consider including a bit more detail about the methodology and indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful. Written expression Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is very good. The chapter would benefit from a more developed Overview and Conclusion, with clearer focus question(s) (Overview) and take-home self-help message for each focus question (Conclusion). Layout The chapter uses a basic 1-level structure. The chapter could be abbreviated by developing a more detailed 2-level structure, with major sections using sub-sections.
