Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Rivalry in the workplace

Suggestion for research on your topic

I suggest looking at the dark triad of personality traits. It might help you when it comes time to find your psychological theories to link back to. Ubaldo111 (discuss • contribs) 06:48, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Initial suggestions

@Boomboompow4: 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/Competition
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Productivity
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Work
• 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.

Heading casing

Hi Boomboompow4. 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 23:39, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

The topic development submission has been reviewed according to the marking criteria. Written feedback is below, plus see the general feedback page. Please also check the page history for 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. Marks are available via UCLearn. Marks are based on the latest version before the due date.

1. Title The title and sub-title are correctly worded and formatted 2. Headings See earlier comment about Heading casing Excellent – Well developed 2-level heading structure. Meaningful headings clearly relate directly to the core topic. Promising 3-level heading structure – could benefit from further development by simplifying to 2-levels and concentrating on the sub-title i.e., WR -> M and P expanding the structure Adopt closer alignment between the sub-title, focus questions, and top-level headings Aim for 3 to 6 top-level headings between the Overview and Conclusion, with up to a similar number of sub-headings for large sections The Overview and Conclusion should not have sub-headings Case studies don't need separate headings; instead embed case studies within relevant sections 3. Overview Currently, too long Remove sub-headings Move the scenario or case study into a feature box (with an image) to the start of this section to help catch reader interest Simplify/abbreviate. Make this section more user-friendly. Move detail into subsequent sections. Focus questions are reasonably well aligned with sub-title Closer alignment between the focus questions and top-level headings is recommended Present focus questions in a feature box at the end of this section 4. Key points Promising development of key points for each section, with some relevant citations Concentrate on addressing the focus questions which should unpack the sub-title Strive for an integrated balance of the best psychological theory and research about this topic Conclusion (the most important section): Under developed What might the take-home, practical messages be? (What are the answer(s) to the question(s) in the sub-title and/or focus questions?) 5. Figure A relevant figure is presented and captioned Caption 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 6. Learning feature One 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 example(s)/case study(ies) but be selective. The primary task is to synthesise the best psychological science about this topic. Then illustrate these ideas with some examples. Consider including quiz question(s), table(s) etc. 7. References OK Are there any systematic reviews about this topic? For APA referencing style, check and correct: capitalisation italicisation doi formatting make doi hyperlinks active (i.e., clickable) use dois where available instead of other links remove "Retrieved from" (not part of APA 7th ed. style) page numbers should be separated by an en-dash (–) rather than a hyphen (-) 8. Resources See also Very good Use bullet-points (see Tutorial 02) External links Very good Use bullet-points (see Tutorial 02) 9. User page Excellent – used effectively Brief description about self – consider expanding 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. A link to the book chapter is provided 10. Social contribution Excellent – at least three different types of contributions with direct link(s) to evidence Great to see you on X!

social contribution

hey, looking at your book chapter. you have done an excellent job so far I found the introduction really engaging with great use of questions you could directly connect it to how rivalry affects the workplace?

I like the balance you have in the pros and cons section you could link to more real-life examples like for instance when you stated that rivalry can lead to burnout or toxic workplaces adding in a quick source to back this up could add more depth.

I really enjoyed your link to practical applications, i think it adds to the creditability of your book chapter as well as the case study you chose was very engaging. great work :) U3236683 (discuss • contribs) 06:40, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Book 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. Chapter marks will be available via UCLearn along with social contribution marks and feedback. Keep an eye on Announcements.

Overall Overall, this is a basic chapter. It makes very good use of psychological theory and basic use of research to address a real-world phenomenon or problem. It makes reasonably good use of learning features. Basic use of academic, peer-reviewed citations to support claims There are many places which could make better use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Move embedded external links into the References section as dois and provide APA style citations 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 with a relevant image Clearly explains the problem or phenomenon Provide focus questions in a feature box to help guide the reader and structure the chapter Theory A very good range of relevant theories are selected, described, and explained Consider discussing benign vs. malicious envy in the context of WR (see Lecture 9 and Tutorial 9) How does burnout relate to WR? (explain or drop focus on burnout and link to the dedicated chapters about this topic). Same with anxiety. Builds reasonably well on related chapters and/or Wikipedia articles Very good depth is provided about relevant theory(ies) Effective use of tables, figures, and/or lists to help clearly convey key theoretical information Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) If you didn't consult an original source, cite it as a secondary source One good use of an example to illustrate theoretical concepts. Consider using more. Research Insufficient review of relevant research More detail about key studies would be ideal Any systematic reviews or meta-analyses in this area? Insufficient use of academic, peer-reviewed citations (e.g., see the tags) Insufficient 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 discussing the direction of relationships considering the strength of relationships acknowledging limitations pointing out critiques/counterarguments suggesting specific directions for future research Many claims are unreferenced (e.g., see the tags) Integration Insufficient integration between theory and research The chapter places more emphasis on theory than on research; strive for an integrated balance Conclusion Excellent summary and conclusion Style Written expression Overall, the quality of written expression is very good Use 3rd person perspective (e.g., "it") rather than 1st (e.g., "we") or 2nd person (e.g., "you") perspective[1] in the main text, although 1st or 2nd person perspective can work well for case studies or feature boxes Layout Include an introductory paragraph before branching into the sub-sections (see tags) Grammar Check and correct use of possessive apostrophes (e.g., cats vs cat's vs cats')[2] APA style Use sentence casing for the names of disorders, therapies, theories, etc. Direct quotes need page numbers – even better, communicate concepts in your own words Figures Figures are very well captioned Refer to each Figure at least once within the main text (e.g., see Figure 1) Tables Table captions use APA style or wiki style Refer to each Table at least once within the main text (e.g., see Table 1) Citations use reasonably good APA style (7th ed.). References use very good APA style: Check and correct use of capitalisation[3] Learning features Basic use of learning features Good 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 even more interactive. See example. Good use of image(s) Very good use of table(s) Reasonably good use of feature box(es) Basic use of case studies or examples No use of quiz(zes) and/or reflection question(s) Excellent use of interwiki links in the "See also" section Use sentence casing (fixed) Use alphabetical order (fixed) Basic use of external links in the "External links" section Be more selective. What are the best 3 to 6 external resources about this topic? Use sentence casing Use alphabetical order Social contribution ~5 logged social contributions with direct links to evidence
