Comments
Hello! I've just read your chapter, it looks really good. I did notice that there was a few spelling/grammar mistakes - so I have made changes to them. All the best! U3081523 (discuss • contribs) 07:20, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey,

I notice you've yet to get started, But from looking at your question I think a good place to start would maybe be looking into Self-determination theory. Perhaps you can demonstrate how different levels of internal and external motivations differently impact our motivation and how rewards change these motivations. Try looking at these links for some basic information.

Feedback
Hi Kodi,

Great job on the chapter! I just have a bit of feedback for you :)
 * The opening questions in the overview section are a little much. There are also a few grammatical errors there that I've fixed up.
 * Your second sentence in your second paragraph in the "personality and motivation" section doesn't make sense. Maybe try breaking it up into 2 sections to make it read a little better :)
 * The "Figure #" sections in your pictures should be italicised according to APA formatting. I have fixed this up for you.
 * References need to have a hanging indent to adhere to APA formatting. I have put this in your source code and they are now fixed :)
 * Great use of tables and colours to break things up!

Hope this helps :) --Qt3141 (discuss • contribs) 05:11, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi there! Chapter is looking really great, very engaging and eye catching. There are a few minor things I have picked up on that you could improve on: Overview: I feel like the second paragraph explaining briefly what motivation is definitely needs a reference, even if its all from your own head, still needs a reference Headings: I don't think some of your subheadings need to be so small, making them all size 1 subheading would be suffice I believe, even if you need to make some headings into new page titles to further break it up if you need Reference: Some of your references aren't in italics where it should be, markers are VERY pedantic about this. Just refer back to your apa formatting to see exactly where commas, full stops and italics need to be.

But overall your chapter is look awesome! Well done :)--U3100166 (discuss • contribs) 04:37, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Chapter is looking great! I like how you've set the page out by placing summaries in different coloured boxes - it makes the page more readable!

My only concern was that a few of the sections had almost complete paragraphs without in-text references. I would consider putting a few in. Additionally, I'm not too sure about the wording of the conclusion. I realise that you are trying to link back to what was in the Overview section, but I think maybe putting the conclusion in more of a paragraph form may be more appropriate. Hope this helped, and good luck with the rest!

Structure
Avoid having only one sub-section - drop it and integrate into a higher level - or add another sub-section. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 12:33, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Wiki links
In the see also section, convert the external links into internal wiki links. And use bullet-points. -- Jtneill - Talk - c 23:06, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
