DOI display
FYI, the current way to display a doi in apa format is to precede it with https://doi.org/

For example doi: 10.1037/arc0000014 should be displayed as https://doi.org/10.1037/arc0000014

Heading casing
Hi there, can I suggest that the sub-heading you have for Theory becomes its own outright heading as it doesnt quite fit as to why it is under the Personality heading. Good luck with the research --U3092376 (discuss • contribs) 08:56, 30 August 2019 (UTC)

Hello, it was interesting to read your chapter. I noticed two typos: 1. in your Sub-heading3 - should be Neuroticism. And 2. in the paragraph: "Higher score - Calm, self-confident, stable, resilient, and well-adjusted (vs.) Lower score - Neurotic, nervous, insecure, fearful, and anxious" words "Higher score" and "lower score" should swap places so that it reads: Higher score - Neurotic, nervous, insecure, fearful, and anxious. --Lanau3186551 (discuss • contribs) 03:13, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

Hi your chapter is really interesting. I did notice how you are lacking some links to outside information I found one interesting one on a reporters experience with doomsday peppers in Australia. It might be interesting to use as an example as well. --Cass1804 (discuss • contribs) 23:57, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi there your chapter looks great. Perhaps consider putting quiz questions throughout the chapter rather then one big section at the hand. --BMPENFOLD (discuss • contribs) 02:29, 13 October 2019 (UTC) 13:29, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Hey there, such an interesting chapter. I always find it so amazing when you watch Doomsday Prepper's and that there are actually people out there that prepared. Also just as a heads up, I have had a bit of a review of your article and updated some of the capitalisation. Just for info any mention of theories when you are writing do not need to be capitalised, unless someone's name is a part of it. Cheers, --U3069703 (discuss • contribs) 08:54, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

What a fun topic!
I would have loved to work on this topic for an entertaining and educational assignment. Lighthearted and fun, with some interesting psychological content as well. I look forward to seeing the version on submission. I have always found the show ridiculous and would like to understand their motivations more.

I would like to contribute some external links to some enjoyable doomsday prep YouTube videos for posterity.

Also, how would the author prep for doomsday after studying this topic?

Underground hideout? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEcMtw4_UHo

Reinforced Vehicle? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlBQGkC-IKM&list=PL3wqJcw4CxJhfnz1dGTz7d401ujyasbke&index=30&t=0s

Invisible tree house? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfXuQLCuMaI&list=PL3wqJcw4CxJhfnz1dGTz7d401ujyasbke&index=36&t=0s

And what would be your doomsday scenario?

Images
Hey,

For images, it would be good to add more of a description in the text box and than link back into your text. Goodluck with your book chapter!

The quiz
What an interesting topic!! My only thought is that the quiz question was a little confusing, maybe instead of asking what conspiracy thinkers "don't score low" in, you could word it as what they "score high" in, otherwise it's a bit of a double negative! But other than that, really great chapter!! It was very in-depth, and I thought all the theories fit really well in the topic :) --Demimimimi (discuss • contribs) 11:46, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Feedback
Hi, I just noticed that your in-text citations have the full stop before the authors in brackets. I think it's supposed to be the other way around so that the authors and dates that are relevant to the sentence written are enclosed in the same full stop. e.g. ...affect job satisfaction (Mander et al., 2018).--U3144248 (discuss • contribs) 20:37, 20 October 2019 (UTC)
