Comment

Hey! I found this reference that discusses safety and risks of psilocybin and I thought it might be relevant to your topic. Tylš, F., Páleníček, T., & Horáček, J. (2014). Psilocybin–summary of knowledge and new perspectives. European Neuropsychopharmacology, 24(3), 342-356. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.euroneuro.2013.12.006--BenRoss068 (discuss • contribs) 04:20, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Comment

Hello! There is lots of fascinating new research surrounding the use of psilocybin alongside CBT in treating addiction. Here's an interesting longitudinal study. Although it has a small sample size (n=15) the 12-month follow up seems to have resulted in quite high rates of smoking cessation (67% had quit smoking after 12 month follow-up). I hope that this can help direct some of your book chapter and I wish that I was assigned to one as interesting and cutting edge as yours! https://doi.org/10.3109/00952990.2016.1170135 Noah O'Brien (discuss • contribs) 25 August 2022 (UTC)

Back again to have a quick look at how your chapter is progressing. I think that one of your sentences in your overview should be a little more nuanced "There is no evidence that current anti-depressants and SSRI’s improve depression and anxiety" Possibly indicate that this is a contentious topic and there is a lot of meta-analysis pointing both ways rather than a really bold statement. Maybe more info on how SSRIs seem to produce a similar effect to placebos but not that there is no benefit whatsoever, because there are actually benefits of placebos. This article here shows that there may be a small effect of SSRIs on Major Depressive Disorder, but that the risks of using SSRIs may outweigh the benefits in regards to increased suicidal behaviour etc. Maybe expand into this topic a little. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12888-016-1173-2 Noah O'Brien (discuss • contribs) 06:09, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

Title Excellent User page Book chapter template has been removed Add description about self 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. Add link to book chapter Social contribution None summarised with link(s) to evidence. Add direct links to evidence. To do this: View the page history, select the version of the page before and after your contributions, click "compare selected revisions", and then use this website address as a direct link to evidence for listing on your user page. For more info, see Making and summarising social contributions. Use a numbered list. Add a brief summary of each contribution. Headings Basic, 1-level heading structure - could benefit from further development, perhaps using a 2-level structure. I like the practical focus, however it is not clear where/how theory and research are to be covered. Key points Underdeveloped Use bullet points (see Tutorial 1 - Using Wikiversity) Overview - Consider adding: a description of the problem and what will be covered focus questions an image an example or case study Remove or adapt generic template content. 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. Consider including more examples/case studies. Include APA style citations. Conclusion (the most important section): hasn't been developed Cite each reference at least once in the main text. Figure A figure is presented. Caption use APA style e.g., Figure 1. ... Cite each figure at least once in the main text. References Good For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation Resources See also Very good External links None provided

Suggest narrowing the topic to a focus on a particular type of disorder for psilocybin assisted psychotherapy, e.g. PTSD or alcoholism. U3191488 (discuss • contribs) 13:23, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

Heading casing

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 -- Jtneill - Talk - c 09:57, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

Hey,

Your topic is incredibly intriguing. I would like to add a suggestion: A crucial point you might be missing regarding the negative risks of psilocybin is its risk of causing mental illness. Although it presents an interesting new up and coming therapeutic tool, those with a history of schizophrenia or psychosis are likely to encourage drug induced mental illness even if it is controlled. I found a source supporting this point. I would love to hear your thoughts on this as well :).

Hi,

I find your topic very interesting and have enjoyed reading what you have so far on your topic. I noticed you have not yet added external links to your chapter. I have done some research and found a few sources that may be of interest to you as they may be relevant to include in your chapter.

Overall Overall, this is an excellent chapter that successfully uses psychological theory and research to help address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem Ideally this would serve as a gateway to the other psilocybin chapters, so add embedded links where appropriate For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Well developed Overview Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon Engages reader interest by introducing a case study and/or example and/or using an image Clear focus question(s) Theory – Breadth Relevant theories are well selected, described, and explained How long does each session typically last? Build more strongly on other related chapters (e.g., by embedding links to other chapters) Theory – Depth Insightful depth is provided about the selected theory(ies) Some useful examples are provided to illustrate theoretical concepts Research – Key findings Relevant research is well reviewed Research – Critical thinking Excellent critical thinking about relevant research is evident Claims are well referenced Integration Discussion of theory and research is well integrated Conclusion Key points are well summarised Clear take-home message(s) Written expression – Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent Layout The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections Grammar Check and make correct use of commas Use serial commas[1] – they are part of APA style and are generally recommended by grammaticists. See explanatory video (1 min) Check and correct use of affect vs. effect Figures Figures are well captioned Remove "The figure above" Figure captions should use this format: Figure X. Descriptive caption in sentence casing. See example Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text Citations are not in full APA style (7th ed.).
