#Overall, 
|2=
#Theory comment
|3=
#Research comment
#When describing important research findings, indicate the size of effects in addition to whether or not there was an effect or relationship.
#Some statements were unreferenced - see the {{fact}} tags 
|4=
#Written expression
##The chapter could have benefited from a more developed Overview and Conclusion, with clearer focus question(s) (Overview) and take-home self-help message for each focus question (Conclusion).
## Obtaining (earlier) comments on a chapter plan and/or chapter draft could have helped to improve the chapter.
## Some paragraphs were overly long. Each paragraph should communicate one key idea in three to five sentences.
## Some sentences were overly long e.g., *
## Some statements could be explained more clearly - see the {{explain}} tags
## Some of the bullet-points should have been in full paragraph format.
## Avoid directional referencing e.g., "As previously mentioned"
## Avoid one sentence paragraphs. A paragraph should typically consist of three to five sentences.
#Learning features
##Adding [[interwiki links]] would make the text more interactive.
#Spelling, grammar and proofreading
## The grammar for some sentences could be improved - see the {{grammar}} tags
## Use Australian spelling e.g., hypothesize -> hypothesise
## Check use of ownership apostrophes e.g., individuals -> individual's
#APA style
## In-text citations should be in alphabetical order
## When there are three or more authors, subsequent citations should use et al. e.g., Smith, Bush and Western (2001) and then in the next paragraph cite Smith et al. (2001).
## Use ampersand (&) inside brackets and "and" outside brackets.
## Numbers under 10 should be written in words (e.g., five); numbers 10 and over should be written in numbers (e.g., 10)
## Direct quotes need page numbers.}}
