Hi, interesting topic choice! An idea for content could be recurring nightmares in people with post traumatic stress disorder. Good luck! U3130574 (discusscontribs) 00:43, 26 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

This sounds like a very interesting topic! I have a few ideas that you might like to consider. An interesting concept would to be look at the differences between adults and children experiencing nightmares, as well as considering if insomnia (which might be caused by nightmares) would have an influence on emotions. I'm looking forward to seeing how this chapter will develop! --U3190229 (discusscontribs) 07:20, 28 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

APA referencing, APA formatting and a case study question

edit

Hey your chapter is looking great, just a few recommendations:

1. Just make sure you are doing APA 7th edition referencing: this means you do not need to italicise citations and when you have three or more authors you need to put et al., for example where you have Spoormaker, Schredl & Bout, 2006 it should be Spoormaker et al., (2006)

2. The name of theories should not be capitalised, only theorists names should have a capital for example Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Refer to this website for more information. https://apastyle.apa.org/style-grammar-guidelines/capitalization/diseases-disorders-therapies

3. For the Buhler and Largo study remember to put in the date for the citation

4. When referring to direct quotes remember to add a page number

5. In the study by Perogamvros et al., 2019 you refer to HEM amplitude, did you mean REM? or is another concept. If so, it may be beneficial to explain what HEM means

I hope these comments are useful and can be helpful to you. You chapter is really great so far!

Overall

edit
  1. Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
  2. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits.
  1. Relevant theories are well selected, described, integrated, and explained, particularly given the limited knowledge in the area.
  2. Did you consult Freud (1900)? If not, this should be a secondary citation.
  3. There was perhaps an overemphasis on therapeutic approaches. For most people, nightmares do not need treatment. So, what else can be said about nightmares and emotion? e.g., Hartmann argues that nightmares provide valuable insight and potential for learning about one's emotions.
  4. What about specific emotions? Which are the most common emotions in nightmares? etc.
  1. Relevant research is well reviewed and discussed in relation to theory.
  2. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is very good.
    2. The chapter benefited from a well developed Overview and Conclusion, with clear focus question(s).
  2. Layout
    1. The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections.
    2. Avoid having sections with only one sub-section.
  3. Learning features
    1. For the See also and External links sections, use bullet-points, per Tutorial 1.
    2. Excellent 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.
    3. 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.
    4. Basic use of image(s).
    5. No use of table(s).
    6. Good use of feature box(es).
    7. No use of quiz(zes).
    8. Basic use of case studies or examples.
  4. Grammar
    1. Use serial commas[1] - it is part of APA style and generally recommended by grammaticists.
  5. APA style
    1. Use double- rather than single-quote marks for emphasis.
    2. Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10).
    3. Figures and tables
      1. Refer to each Table and Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1).
    4. Citations are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. If there are three or more authors, cite the first author followed by et al., then year (e.g., Smith et al., 2020)
      2. Remove italics
      3. Multiple citations in parentheses should be listed in alphabetical order by first author surname.
      4. Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets.
    5. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation.
      2. Check and correct use of italicisation.
