Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Gender differences in sexual motivation

Initial suggestions

@U3200844: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:

• Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Gender
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Sexual motivation
• Also search past book chapters for related topics
• For the topic development, consider:
  • What psychological theory(ies) can help to understand and explain this topic?
  • What is the main research in this area?
• Let me know if I can do anything else to support the development of this chapter.

@U3200844: I am looking forward to reading your completed chapter! I am particularly interested in differences in communication styles between males and females. As I am in a heterosexual relationship, I have always been interested in how and why females commonly approach conversations differently to males in regard to sexual motivation. If you are interested too, I think delving into that would be really interesting! Sincerely, Ash ashdruett 21:25, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

1. Title The title and sub-title are correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings Excellent – Well developed 2-level heading structure. Meaningful headings clearly relate directly to the core topic. Good alignment between focus questions and heading structure There is no heading to address the 4th focus question 3. Overview Excellent - Scenario, image, evocative description of the problem/topic, relevant psychological theory/research, and focus questions A scenario or case study is presented in a feature box at the start of this section. Add an image to the scenario to help attract reader interest. A brief, evocative description of the problem/topic is provided Focus questions are aligned with sub-title and top-level headings 4. Key points Excellent – key points are well developed for each section, with relevant citations Avoid providing too much background information (relates to the Intruction section). Aim to briefly summarise general concepts and provide internal links to relevant book chapters and/or Wikipedia pages for further information. Then focus most of the content on directly answering the core question(s) posed by the chapter sub-title. Promising balance of theory and research Consider including evolutionary psychology Conclusion (the most important section): Underway 5. Figure One or more relevant figure(s) is/are presented and captioned The figure caption(s) could better explain how the image connects to key points being made in the main text Cite each figure at least once in the main text using APA style (e.g., see Figure 1) 6. Learning feature Excellent use of in-text interwiki links for the first mention of key terms to relevant Wikipedia articles and/or to other relevant book chapters Promising use of one or more scenarios/examples/case studies Consider including one or more quiz question(s) about the take-home messages Consider using one or more tables to summarise key information 7. References Very good Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? Check and correct APA referencing style: capitalisation italicisation 8. Resources See also Excellent External links Excellent 9.

social contribution

hey, your book chapter is coming along very well. I think you have done a great job on developing clear focus on gender differences. it would be interesting to see more sociocultural influences such as the impact of societal norms, cultural expectations, and changing gender roles in society. I also really enjoyed the integration of the evolutionary perspective. great work :) U3236683 (discuss • contribs) 20:43, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

References

Hello there, I was looking at your book chapter thus far and it seems to be coming along very well. I just wanted to remind you that within your references the journal article and the volume number need to be in italics. I don't want to you get penalised for it :) TEGIANN (discuss • contribs) 10:22, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Overall Overall, this is an excellent chapter. It successfully uses psychological theory and research to address a practical, real-world phenomenon or problem. Very good use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims In some places, better use could be made of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) For additional feedback, see the following comments and these copyedits Overview Reasonably good Engages reader via a case study or scenario in a feature box; also include a relevant image Clearly explains the psychological problem or phenomenon Clear and relevant focus questions in a feature box Theory An excellent range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Builds effectively on other chapters and/or Wikipedia articles Insightful depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Excellent use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help clearly convey key theoretical information Key citations are well used Excellent use of examples to illustrate theoretical concepts Research Very good review of relevant research More detail about key studies would be ideal Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area? Basic critical thinking about relevant research is evident Critical thinking about research could be further evidenced by: describing the methodology (e.g., sample, measures) in important studies considering the strength of relationships acknowledging limitations pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Integration Very good integration between theory and research Insufficient integration with chapters Conclusion Excellent summary and conclusion Key points are well summarised Clear take-home message(s) Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is excellent Layout The chapter is well structured, with major sections using sub-sections Grammar The grammar for some/many sentences could be improved (e.g., see the tags) Consider using a grammar checking tool Another option is to use a services provided by UC, such as Studiosity Another option is to share draft work with peers and ask for their assistance Check and make correct use of commas Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')[1] APA style Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc. Figures Well captioned Each Figure is referred to at least once within the main text. Refer to each Figure using APA style (e.g., "(see Figure 1)"; do not use bold, italics, check and correct capitalisation). Tables Use APA style for captions (see example) Refer to each Table using APA style (e.g., do not use bold, talics, check and correct capitalisation) Citations use excellent APA Style (7th ed.) References use very good APA style: Check and correct use of capitalisation[2] Learning features Excellent use of 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. Excellent use of figure(s) Excellent use of table(s) Excellent use of feature box(es) Excellent use of scenarios, case studies, or examples Basic use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) The quiz questions could be improved by being more focused on the key points and/or take-home messages The quiz questions could be more effective as learning prompts by being embedded as single questions within each corresponding section rather than as a set of questions at the end Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Very good use of external links in the "External links" section More relevant links could be used Social contribution ~7 logged, useful contributions with direct links to evidence
