YouTube video
Hey Jem, I saw your post on moodle and found something a little different that you may (or may not) want to incorporate. I found this youtube video on verbal aggression in the digital age: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-IXpILnPuw. I thought it could be interesting to add, for people to hear different perspectives on this fascinating topic and adds a little extra something to your page. It is a 5:44 minute video but is pretty interesting in that it answers a range of questions relating to aspects of your topic. Hope this is of some use to you! Also just wanted to say fantastic work on your chapter, it looks great and is super informative! Good luck! --Tahliachristofersen (discuss • contribs) 14:05, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Also, just wanted to suggest adding - https://doi.org/ before your doi's in your reference list as this provides a direct link to the article/site you are referencing and makes it a lot easier to access.--Tahliachristofersen (discuss • contribs) 15:42, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Interactive Features
Hiya Jem! I just did a read through of your chapter and it is looking great - there is a comprehensive review of literature and you have combined theory and research in a way which is coherent to the reader. I noticed that there is an area on the rubric that requires examples:
 * "Consider including one or more practical examples, such as case studies. Try to apply the selected theory(ies) and research to everyday life situations that readers are likely to
 * encounter.

I believe incorporating a case study into your chapter will be an effective way of illustrating your theoretical examples! Also there is a section in the rubric titled 'integrative features' worth 5% and this includes the utilisation of quizzes, tables, figures etc. Maybe incoperating a quiz or some tables may enable you to get the full 5%? Overall, great chapter and I am looking forward to reading the final result! Jane --U3144362 (discuss • contribs) 14:22, 21 October 2017 (UTC)u3144362 1:21 AM

Suggestion on theory of reasoned action
Hi Jem, I had a look through your chapter - really interesting topic! I suggest that in your Theory of reasoned action section you cite Azjen & Fishbein (1980) as they proposed the theory. I think the citation is: (Ajzen, I., & Fishbein, M. (1980). Understanding attitudes and predicting social behaviour. Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice-Hall) but you might want to double check. They say that attitudes and perceived social norms will predict behaviour intention - and subsequently, actual behaviour. This could help to explain why people are verbally aggressive in the first place but also it could be applied in line with behaviour change ie changing peoples attitudes and social norms towards verbal aggression will likely reduce behavioural intent towards using verbal aggression. There is an image which highlights the theory quite well on wikicommons https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:TRA_(BLUE).jpg. Hope this helps. Sorry it's so late. Good luck with your chapter!! --WJDHR (discuss • contribs) 21:47, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Introduction suggestion
Hey there, this is a really great and well-researched chapter! However, I think it is a little bit heavy on information and terminology in the very beginning. Have you considered perhaps moving "The problem" before "The overview" (perhaps in a friendly, coloured text box) to provide the reader with some context and personal identification before starting to get into the heavy stuff? I think this will give people a better idea of what they're about to read, whilst also improving the odds that they'll make it through the whole thing because you've engaged them with a story and given them something easy to understand to begin with. The Reeve textbook does this at the start of every chapter with a story displaying the concepts that will be covered. Good work, and good luck in submitting tomorrow morning! --Taylormeggles (discuss • contribs) 23:27, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

doi links
Hi I saw you were after feedback. I just added the doi links to your ref list. Most are working a few are not. Im not sure if maybe its the doi's themselves so maybe have a check on the reference. Page is looking great!--U3135539 (discuss • contribs) 09:12, 22 October 2017 (UTC)
