Feedback

Hey! I found this Ted Talk / Article on how to deal and cope with sorrow. I hope it gives some helpful insight! https://ideas.ted.com/sorrow-and-tragedy-will-happen-to-us-all-here-are-3-strategies-to-help-you-cope/

Hey! I found this really interesting article about chronic sorrow. It gives a good definition and also compares chronic sorrow to prolonged grief and prolonged depression which may be helpful in your section that highlights the differences between sadness and sorrow. https://search-proquest-com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/docview/207665969?rfr_id=info%3Axri%2Fsid%3Aprimo --Taylor Mamukic (discuss • contribs) 23:44, 10 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 06:28, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Images

Hey, I think it would be really interesting

to add a few images into your chapter. I would be super interested to see what kind of relevant images you could find that really add to the information you're delivering! Goodluck :) --taramaland (discuss contribs) 10:00, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Article suggestion

I have found an interesting article about how sorrow, alongside other emotions are crucial to maintaining cognitive balance. http://web.a.ebscohost.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/ehost/detail/detail?vid=0&sid=0f49d901-f903-4aae-95ba-b87bf238e188%40sessionmgr4006&bdata=#AN=2014-10687-001&db=pdh --Jackson McNee (discuss • contribs) 00:28, 18 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 a promising chapter that does a reasonably good job of applying psychological theory and research to a real-world problem. The main area for improvement is that many claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags), so the chapter demonstrates insufficient linkage to the best available peer-reviewed academic literature about the topic, especially for 3rd year undergraduate psychology. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits. Theory Relevant theory is reasonably well explained. Sorrow is considered from several perspectives. A critical perspective is evident. There are some contradictory descriptions of the relationship between sorrow and sadness. For example, sorrow is described as not as severe as sadness, but then also as more than sadness. Research Overall, this chapter provides a basic overview of relevant research. 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 basic. Use 3rd person perspective rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you")[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes. Layout See earlier comments about heading casing. Learning features Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. 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. Problematic use of image(s). Uploaded images appear to have been falsely claimed as author's own work. Deletion has been requested. No use of table(s). Good use of feature box(es). Basic use of quiz(zes). Grammar The grammar for many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags). Check and correct use of ownership apostrophes (e.g., individuals vs. individual's vs individuals').[2]. Abbreviations Abbreviations (such as e.g., i.e.., etc.) should only be used inside parentheses. Spelling Spelling can be improved (e.g., see the tags). Spell-checking tools are available in most internet browsers and word processing software packages. Proofreading More proofreading is needed to fix typos and bring the quality of written expression closer to a professional standard. Remove unnecessary capitalisation. Replace double spaces with single spaces. APA style Do not capitalise the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc.. Use double (not single) quotation marks "to introduce a word or phrase used as an ironic comment, as slang, or as an invented or coined expression; use quotation marks only for the first occurrence of the word or phrase, not for subsequent occurrences" (APA 7th ed., 2020, p. 159). Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10). Direct quotes need page numbers. Figures and tables Refer to each Table and Figure using APA style (e.g., check and correct capitalisation). References are not in full APA style. For example: Check and correct use of capitalisation. Social contribution ~17 logged social contributions, almost all after the original due for book chapters (so not much use to the authors) and relatively minor in nature. Most contributions were without direct links to evidence, so unable to easily verify and assess.

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 a basic presentation. The presentation is over the maximum time limit - content beyond 3 mins is ignored for marking and feedback purposes. Structure and content Comments about the book chapter also apply to this section. An appropriate amount of content is presented - not too much or too little. Consider adding and narrating an Overview slide (e.g., with focus questions), to help orientate the viewer about what will be covered. The presentation makes good use of theory. The presentation makes little to no use of research. The presentation makes no use of examples or case studies. The Conclusion only partly fitted within the time limit. Communication The presentation makes basic use of text based slides with narrated audio. Well paced. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read. The visual communication is supplemented by images. Production quality The video is basically produced using simple tools. The chapter title and sub-title are used in the name of the presentation (but check and fix the capitalisation) - this helps to clearly convey the purpose of the presentation. 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. Audio recording quality was very good. Visual display quality was basic. Image sources and their copyright status are not provided. Either provide details about the image sources and their copyright licenses in the video description or remove the presentation. This presentation has probably violated the copyrights of image owners as images appear to have been used without permission and/or acknowledgement. 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 brief written description of the presentation is provided. Consider expanding.
