TED talk and references
Hello,

You have such an interesting topic, and have done excellently so far! I found a TED talk that suits your book chapter really well: https://www.ted.com/talks/guy_winch_how_to_fix_a_broken_heart

Guy Winch examines the pain of a broken heart - how when people get broken hearted, they often lack emotional resources, flounder and coping mechanisms which seem to get them through other life challenges seem to fail. When broken hearted, people see their ex partners in an idealised way, which prevents them from moving on. Having a clear understanding of why the relationship ended seems to help people move on, but this can be difficult because when the person misses their ex partner they are going through withdrawal (which he equates to a drug withdrawal), and they only seem to focus on the positive aspects of it (i.e., their smile, positive feelings).

I hope this helps! Also just a reminder, you need to italicise the journal and journal number for your references.

Also, issue numbers only need to be included if the journal is paginated by issue (which is usually not the case). Here's a link that explains it further: http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2011/10/how-to-determine-whether-a-periodical-is-paginated-by-issue.html.

I also edited your book chapter and made the headings and sub-headings de-capitalised as James has outlined above.

Good luck!

Reference list DOIs
Based on http://blog.apastyle.org/apastyle/2017/03/doi-display-guidelines-update-march-2017.html, it is better to change the way of referencing the DOI's references.
 * 1) The volume should be erased and the number of volumes should be in italic.
 * 2) Instead of doi:, http://doi.org/ should be used.
 * 3) The name of the publisher also should be in italic.

I changed all DOIs references for you. 22:50, 20 Oct 2018, U31455
