It might be interesting to explore exercise addiction as a confounding factor in peoples reason to engage in endurance sports. As endurance sports are not available to beginners due to their physical demands. It is self-evident that the participants would all have a history of consistent exercise. The 2019 literature review I included below supported this theory finding that exercise addiction is more prevalent among regular exercises than the public. It was also highest in the most strenuous sports, highlighting endurance sports specifically as having the highest rates of exercise addiction.

Under your 'Research and Theories' heading, It might be useful to refer to self-determination related papers by Ryan and Deci, as they are well established and likely a foundational part of the literature.

A really interesting topic! Would love to see a direct comparison between motivation to participate in sport and motivation to engage in endurance sport. This could also be done through a graph to add engage to reading audience. --U3174214 (discuss • contribs) 12:24, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Heading casing

FYI, the convention on Wikiversity is for sentence casing. For example, the wikitext should be: == Cats and mice == rather than == Cats and Mice == -- Jtneill - Talk - c 22:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)

The topic development has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing the chapter plan. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Topic development marks are available via UCLearn. Note that marks are based on what was available before the due date, whereas the comments may also be based on all material available at time of providing this feedback.

Title and sub-title Very good Capitalisation of the title has been corrected to be consistent with the book table of contents User page Created Description about self provided 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 Social contribution None summarised with link(s) to evidence. Section headings Basic, 1-level heading structure - could benefit from further development, perhaps using a 2-level structure. In particular, expand around the best available psychological theory and research on this topic, as well as the practical, everyday implications. Aim for 3 to 6 top-level headings between the Overview and Conclusion, with up to a similar number of sub-headings for large sections. See earlier comment about Heading casing. Key points Use bullet points (see Tutorial 1 - Using Wikiversity) Limited, partial development of key points Overview - Consider adding: a description of the problem and what will be covered an example or case study Avoid providing too much background information. Briefly summarise general concepts and provide internal wiki links to other book chapters and/or Wikipedia pages for further information. Then focus most of the content of this chapter directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title. Expand theory and research. Include in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters. Conclusion (the most important section): hasn't been developed what might the take-home, practical messages be? in a nutshell, what are the answer(s) to the question in the sub-title? Image An image (figure) is presented. Caption does not use APA style. could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text. Cite each figure at least once in the main text. Consider decreasing image size to create a better balance between image and text. References Not cited For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation doi formatting None Resources None

I hope you enjoy checking out these 3 articles I found for you, I think it could really get your chapter off to a good start and hopefully interests you. https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.01484/full?utm_campaign=6211273945&utm_term=2019_02_07_13_00&utm_medium=triathlonmania&utm_source=instagram&utm_content=105479879 https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.01383/full?source=post_page-----8cc67f9750a9---------------------- https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphys.2017.00083/full --taramaland (discuss contribs) 10:34, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Chapter review and feedback

This chapter has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is provided below, plus there is a general feedback page. Please also check the chapter's page history to check for editing changes made whilst reviewing through the chapter. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below and/or contacting the reviewer. Chapter marks will be available later via UCLearn, along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall Overall, this is an insufficient chapter. Addressing the topic development feedback could have helped to improve this chapter. Minimal additional feedback is provided here because there is little evidence that earlier feedback was taken into account. The Overview provides an insufficient introduction to the topic (the sub-title question) and chapter focus. The chapter lacks a Conclusion. This chapter is well under/over the maximum word count. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits. Theory Overall, this chapter makes use of general motivational theory, but there is insufficient evidence-based application to the endurance sport. Research Overall, this chapter makes insufficient use of the best-available psychological research about this topic. Many claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags). When describing important research findings, consider including a bit more detail about the methodology and indicating 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 below professional standard. Direct quotes should be embedded within sentences and paragraphs, rather than dumped holus-bolus. Even better, communicate the concept in your own words. 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 See earlier comments about heading casing. The sub-headings in bold should be formatted as wiki headings so that they appear in the table of contents. Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings. Learning features Use bullet-points and numbered lists, per Tutorial 1. No use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text more interactive. See example. No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Embedding in-text links to related book chapters helps to integrate this chapter into the broader book project. Ideally, use in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters. Other links can be moved to the external links section. Basic use of image(s). No use of table(s). No use of feature box(es). No use of quiz(zes). Basic use of case studies or examples. Grammar The grammar for most sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags). Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[1]. APA style Direct quotes need page numbers. Figures and tables Use APA style for Figure captions. See example. Refer to each Table and Figure using APA style (e.g., do not use italics, check and correct capitalisation). References are not in full APA style. See also and external link sections are missing.

Multimedia feedback

The accompanying multimedia presentation has been marked according to the marking criteria. Marks are available via the unit's UCLearn site. Written feedback is provided below, plus see the general feedback page. Responses to this feedback can be made by starting a new section below. If you would like further clarification about the marking or feedback, contact the unit convener.

Overall Overall, this is an insufficient presentation because the content doesn't adequately address the topic. Structure and content An appropriate amount of content is presented - not too much or too little. But the general theory lacks sufficient application to the endurance sport context. There is no mention of any relevant research. Comments about the book chapter also larger apply to this section. The presentation is well structured. What are the practical take-home message(s) that we can use to help improve our everyday lives based on the best available psychological theory and research about this topic? Communication The presentation is easy to follow. The presentation makes effective use of animated slides. Well paced. This helps the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read. Production quality The chapter title but not the sub-title are used in the video title - the latter would help to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. The chapter title and sub-title are used on the opening slide - this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. Audio recording quality was excellent/very good/good/a bit quiet - probably an on-board microphone was used because keyboard clicks were audible. Consider using an external microphone. Visual display quality was good. Mute the music during narration to help the viewer concentrate on the combination of visual information and narrated audio. A copyright license for the presentation is not provided. A link to the book chapter is provided. A link from the book chapter is provided. A written description of the presentation is not provided.
