COVID panic buying

edit

Have you thought about using COVID panic buying as a case study? ---- Jtneill - Talk - c 09:04, 19 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi James, absolutely. As COVID-19 is accepted to be the first broadly researched modern pandemic (Loxton, M. et al, 2020), I have found that most of the current literature on panic buying is heavily situated around COVID-19. It may even enrich my chapter to search for resources in the literature that do not concern the COVID-19 pandemic. --M.Pulford (discusscontribs) 06:17, 29 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Suggested reading to consider

edit

Hello! Very excited for this as it is very relevant to current lockdown behaviour. I suggest reading this [1] article as it summarises the behavioural influences well

Proper source format to make it easier to cite: Yuen, K., Wang, X., Ma, F. and Li, K., 2020. The Psychological Causes of Panic Buying Following a Health Crisis. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 17(10), p.3513. (discusscontribs)

Hi Zandrine! Thanks, I'm enjoying researching my topic. I agree, that is an excellent article, it is already included in my topic development! --M.Pulford (discusscontribs) 13:18, 29 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi! I've found an article related to panic buying that may be of use to you.

Analysis of over-purchasing during Covid-19 using data from the UK and Republic of Ireland. Includes possible contributing factors to an increase in over-purchasing (income, psychological factors, distress, presence of children, threat sensitivity, mistrust of others) using a psychological model. Also includes comparisons between urban and rural communities, as well as across countries. https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0246339

Hope this could be useful!

Hi I really enjoy your chapter so far but I do have a suggestion. For your section on 'How to prevent panic buying', I think it could be useful to include a section on education. Although government and retail intervention are great points, educating the public on why there is no need to panic buy and explaining consumer supply chains would be useful. Education could be described in radio or television ads, posters at stores, letters to households or website and digital marketing. I think this would be a great addition to your chapter! You could even use ACT Health's facebook page would supplied constant updates during the lockdown period. I hope this helps, if you have any questions please let me know :) --U3204463 (discusscontribs) 09:55, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Above social contribution was left in the body of my topic development. I've moved it here to avoid confusion--M.Pulford (discusscontribs) 17:00, 29 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Heading casing

edit
 
FYI, the recommended Wikiversity heading style uses sentence casing. For example:

Self-determination theory rather than Self-Determination Theory

Here's an example chapter with correct heading casing: Growth mindset development

  1. Well developed 2-level heading structure, with meaningful headings that directly relate to the core topic
  2. See earlier comment about Heading casing

    2. so, just provide a description of the problem and what will be covered, then the focus questions

What a very real and immediate topic. Love it! I would seriously consider if those pictures are 'legal' though Wikiversity simply because I noticed that when I used google images someone kept removing them from my page. Just a little tip. If they are licensed for wiki then you are all good. Also, the quiz someone has popped below for your use is a great idea, and I would keep on trying to be more interactive with some colour. Check out my chapter for some inspo:

Suggestion

edit

Hey! I actually did an assignment a while back to do with COVID19 restrictions and did a little on panic buying. One of the main reasons I found was to do with prescriptive and descriptive norms, The government is saying to do one thing, yet media is showing the complete opposite. Anyway give this article a read its really interesting https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/spc3.12596 --U3202984 (discusscontribs) 11:35, 15 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Overall

edit
  1. Overall, this is a solid chapter that makes reasonably good use of psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem.
  2. Well under the maximum word count.
  3. For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits.
  1. Solid Overview.
  2. Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon.
  3. Clear focus question(s).
  4. Consider introducing a case study or example to help engage reader interest.
  1. Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained.
  2. The chapter doesn't wander off into discussion of irrelevant theory.
  1. Reasonable depth is provided about the selected theory(ies).
  2. In some places, this chapter is overly focused on panic buying in the context of COVID-19. However, panic buying during the COVID-19 pandemic can be a useful case study.
  3. Key citations are well used.
  4. Some useful examples are provided to illustrate theoretical concepts.
  1. Basic overview of relevant research.
  2. More detail about key studies would be ideal.
  3. Greater emphasis on major reviews and/or meta-analyses would be helpful.
  1. Basic critical thinking about research is evident.
  2. Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by:
    1. describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies
    2. discussing the direction of relationships
    3. considering the strength of relationships
    4. acknowledging limitations
    5. suggesting specific directions for future research
  1. There is basic integration between theory and research.
  1. Basic summary.
  2. Add practical, take-home message(s).
  1. Written expression
    1. Overall, the quality of written expression is good.
    2. Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences.
  2. Layout
    1. See earlier comments about heading casing.
  3. Grammar
    1. Use serial commas[2] - they are part of APA style and are generally recommended by grammaticists. Here's an explanatory video (1 min).
  4. APA style
    1. Do not capitalise the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc..
    2. 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).
    3. Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numerals (e.g., 10).
    4. Direct quotes need page numbers - even better, write in your own words.
  5. Figures and tables
      1. Refer to each Table and Figure at least once within the main text using APA style (e.g., see Figure 1).
      2. Figures are well captioned.
      3. Figure captions use the correct format.
      4. Table captions should use APA style. See example.
    1. Citations are not in full APA style (7th ed.). For example:
      1. Check and correct formatting. For example, "(Wang. 2020)" should be "(Wang, 2020)".
      2. A comma is needed after "et al." when used in parentheses (i.e., "et al., year").
    2. References are not in full APA style. For example:
      1. Check and correct use of capitalisation[3]
      2. Check and correct use of italicisation
  1. Overall, the use of learning features is basic.
  2. Basic use of embedded in-text interwiki links to Wikipedia articles. Adding more interwiki links for the first mention of key words and technical concepts would make the text more interactive. See example.
  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. Basic use of table(s).
  6. Basic use of feature box(es).
  7. Basic use of quiz(zes).
  8. Basic use of case studies or examples.
  1. ~1 logged, useful, minor/moderate/major social contributions with direct links to evidence.
