Comments

Such an important topic! Changes in workplace characteristics over the last few decades, following technological, social and economic change, may also be affecting work relationships and therefore workplace mental health. Perhaps we need to be sure that workplaces are basing their policies on up to date psychological theories and research. What are some examples of successful applications of new theory and what are some where improvement is needed to develop strategies that meet the contemporary, globalised, world. --Hill Sarah Louise (discuss • contribs) 02:59, 30 August 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 Excellent User page Created, sufficient Consider linking to your eportfolio Link provided to book chapter Social contribution Excellent Summarised with direct link(s) to evidence. Section headings Promising 2-level heading structure - all sections are focused on the topic. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading - use 0 or 2+ sub-headings. Probably avoid having author names in the headings unless particularly pertinent. Maybe sections 4 and 5 could be sub-sections of section 3? Also consider shortening these headings to What can individuals do? What can organisations do? Key points Very well developed - planned content is all directly relevant to the topic. May need to be selective due to fit into overall word count. Overview is visually complex - consider ways to simplify Promising use of case studies and interactivity (e.g., feature boxes, links). Image Excellent References Very good For APA referencing style, check and correct: italicisation Resources Excellent Target an international audience; Australians only represent 0.33% of the world population

leadership style associated with psychological well-being

Wow - excellent work on your book chapter it looks fantastic so far! If you wish to add further information, I know that there is a lot of research on the importance of leadership capability and how leaders directly influence the psychological well-being of employees. I see that you have discussed that the influence of leaders cascades down through the organisation. however, there is also specific research on how transformational leadership behaviours (which are associated with EI) in particular predict employee psychological well-being. This research is also linked to the leader-member exchange theory which is a social exchange theory. Just a note if you’d like to delve into this research at all. --Amy.lange1306 (discuss • contribs) 23:01, 13 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 chapter does a good job of applying psychological theory and research to a real-world problem. Addressing the topic development feedback could have helped to improve this chapter. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits. Theory Relevant theories are well selected, described, integrated, and explained. A lot of theory is covered. Perhaps being more selective about what to cover, and covering this in a bit more depth, would be helpful. The case study material is helpful. Perhaps more case studies would help even more - e.g., an organisation which has problems with employee mental health which implements key suggestions from the chapter. Research Relevant research is cited and discussed in relation to theory. 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. Use of major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful. Written expression Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is basic. Internationalise: Write for an international, not just a domestic audience. Australians make up only 0.32% of the world human population. The chapter benefited from a well developed Conclusion. Layout The chapter is reasonably well structured, with major sections using sub-sections. Perhaps an additional top-level section would be useful - e.g., what can be done? Sections which include sub-sections should also include an introductory paragraph (which doesn't need a separate heading) before branching into the sub-headings. Avoid having sections with 1 sub-heading - use 0 or 2+ sub-headings. Learning features Excellent use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. No use of embedded in-text links to related book chapters. Excellent use of image(s). Excellent use of table(s). Very good use of feature box(es). Excellent use of quiz(zes). Some use of case studies or examples. Grammar The grammar for some sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags). Check and make correct use of commas. Use serial commas[1] - it is part of APA style and generally recommended by grammaticists. Here's a 1 min. explanatory video. Abbreviations Use abbreviations sparingly. Do not use abbreviations for minor terms that aren't used very much in the chapter. Proofreading Replace double spaces with single spaces. APA style Direct quotes need page numbers. Remove unnecessary use of bold. Figures and tables Refer to each Table and Figure using APA style (e.g., check and correct capitalisation). Use APA style for Table captions. See example. Citations are not in full APA style. For example: Move non-peer-reviewed sources into the external links section. Check and correct formatting for et al., either: in-text, Smith et al. (2020), or in parentheses (Smith et al., 2020) References are in very good APA style. To improve: Move non-peer-reviewed sources to external links. Social contribution ~26 logged, useful, social contributions with direct links to evidence Thankyou for your excellent social contributions - much appreciated! Bonus marks added

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 reasonably good presentation. The presentation is under the maximum time limit. Structure and content An appropriate amount of content is presented - not too much or too little. The presentation is well structured. 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 no use of research. The presentation could be improved by making more use of examples or case studies. A Conclusion slide is presented with a take-home message(s). Communication The presentation is interesting to watch and listen to. The presentation makes effective use of text and image based slides with narrated audio. Well paced. Excellent pauses between sentences. This helps the viewer to cognitively digest the information that has just been presented before moving on to the next point. Excellent/ intonation to enhance listener interest and engagement. The font size is sufficiently large to make it easy to read. The visual communication is effectively supplemented by images. Production quality The video is well produced. The wording of the title/sub-title is inconsistent between the name of the video, the opening slide, and/or the book chapter. Audio recording quality was a bit tinny - probably an on-board microphone was used because keyboard clicks were audible. Consider using an external microphone. Visual display quality was excellent. Mute the music during narration to help the viewer concentrate on the combination of visual information and narrated audio. Image sources and their copyright status are not provided. Either acknowledge the image sources and their licenses in the video description or remove the presentation. A more direct link to the music source should be provided. 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.
