Hi There!

I noticed that there isn't any feedback from your peers so I thought I would kick things off. Firstly, I really like your topic, my topic (Hypothalamus and Motivation) is really predominantly neurological focussed so I know its difficult to integrate motivational theories. I have also noticed you haven't yet linked any see also pages to relevant book chapters here are a few that may be applicable to your chapter: Testosterone and sexual motivation: What are the effects of testosterone on sexual motivation? and Testosterone and dominance: What is the relationship between testosterone and dominance?

Moreover, I think maybe a section on hunger hormones and motivation would be appropriate? Such as Leptin and Gherlin see this chapter for more information - Ghrelin, leptin, hunger, and eating: How do ghrelin and leptin affect hunger and eating?

It also might be worth examining the organs and systems that secrete these hormones i.e. the endocrine gland to provide a more detailed review of the whole hormone 'process'

I am looking forward to reading the rest of your chapter - Good luck :) --U3144362 (discuss • contribs) 13:21, 16 October 2017 (UTC) u3144362 12:21 AM

Hey! I found your topic super interesting, and it related quite well with mine! I love how you included sexual motivation as a type of motivation driven by hormones. Your chapter is really well laid out and very easy to read. Your pictures are relevant and provide a good break-up between blocks of writing that make it much easier to read. I basically just wanted to congratulate you on such a good chapter, and I hope you're pleased with your grade. It may be a little late now, but in future - for APA style references you might want to italicize the journal which you retrieved the article from. I will edit your chapter and completed a few of these so you understand what I am referring to. Good luck!!

Hey there!

I found this topic useful in reading up on hormones and their effects on motivation. It would be interesting to research further what effects hormones had on other motivations other then thirst, sex and hunger. It is a broad topic to cover but further development of the chapter would be useful. A section discussing the effects of hormones on cognition and emotion before narrowing down to specific drives and their causes could add to the chapter.

Thank you for your efforts here
