Comments
Hi, This is looking really good and is very infomative. Below are a few comments which may help in your final edit: Table 1. Normal vs cocaine effected dopamine processes And table 1 should be referred to in your text. Overall great chapter! U3025324 (discuss • contribs) 06:08, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Don't forget that you need to put an in-text reference after each factual statement you make that isn't common knowledge - not just at the end of the paragraph. E.g "Cocaine has been around as early as the 1400s, harvested from the leaves of a plant called Erythroxylum coca. It has been utilised in many ways over time such as being used as a substance to increase physical stamina in Spanish mine workers in 1492." Both of these sentences should have references to let the reader know where you found this infomation.
 * In your Figure caption, only Figure 1 should be italisised. The rest of the information should not be.
 * Tables should also have a heading and caption, and be referenced in the main text. For example, your table relating to dopamine processes should be headed:
 * Your 'did you know' box under neurological effects doesn't have any references

Perhaps consider the physiological connection between the effects of cocaine and emotion. E.g. is there an effect on neurotransmitters etc. --BMPENFOLD (discuss • contribs) 03:12, 1 September 2019 (UTC) Great start on cocaine and emotion! given myself some ideas on how to approach my own work. --U3096876 (discuss • contribs) 07:44, 4 September 2019 (UTC) Maybe under effects of cocaine on emotion, have a look at emotional prosody. Hulka et al., (2013) explain how cocaine effects emotional prosody. --U3158296 (discuss • contribs) 09:27, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

I think that you're off to a really good start with your development plan, just make sure that you're adding in-text references where necessary, as it can always be easier to do it while you go, rather than leaving it until the end and finishing it later. Consider elaborating on the history of cocaine use, as it will provide insight into the prevalence of use over time, e.g., how it has evolved as an anaesthetic, to how it has evolved to abuse and the influence of the drug itself on emotion. Here is an article for reference: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1297313/. Hope this helps, good luck! --Emilymking (discuss • contribs) 22:54, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

I like the topic you have chosen and I think you are in a good position to continue developing your topic with the appropriate choice of headings and subheadings. I have a couple of references that I hope you find interesting and may be able to help you to continue to build onto your topic. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0896627300803748 (acute effects of cocaine on human brain activity and emotion). And this next one: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Kim_Kuypers/publication/281518400_P1e007_Emotion_recognition_during_cocaine_intoxication/links/566572a508ae4931cd6218b7/P1e007-Emotion-recognition-during-cocaine-intoxication.pdf (emotion recognition during cocaine intoxication). I hope these are useful for you, good luck! --MPollard10 (discuss • contribs) 9:49, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

This is a great topic to write about! You could have a look at Preller H. et al., and the effects that cocaine has on feeling empathy. --U3158296 (discuss • contribs) 01:07, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Hey! Great start to your chapter so far, but I just wanted to point out that your references aren't properly formatted for APA 7th edition - the name of the journal the article was published in (not inclusive of the comma) and the volume number should be italicised. The American Psychological Association has a great quick reference guide, which might be worth checking out!--U3190229 (discuss • contribs) 06:47, 28 August 2020 (UTC)

Greetings! I just wanted to add some comments that may benefit the development of this chapter. Expanding on the overview (instead of just focus questions) may improve the general flow of this chapter ! From this, a more in-depth analysis with multiple sources may solidify your findings ! --U3190016 (discuss • contribs) 11:11, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

cocaine and the prefrontal cortex
I have linked an article about how cocaine affects the prefrontal cortex and how this relates to cocaine seeking behaviour. http://web.b.ebscohost.com/ehost/pdfviewer/pdfviewer?vid=2&sid=19644e7e-da58-4c27-93d1-2f01b4820c89%40pdc-v-sessmgr01 --Jackson McNee (discuss • contribs) 05:11, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Hi I've read through your chapter and i think its a really interesting topic, ive noticed that you have mentioned the effects cocaine has on the brain through the increase of neurotransmitters etc however, i believe it is important to mention the psychcological and physical changes in thoughts and feelings which will help people understand why individuals are so drawn to using cocaine and what they feel while using it. There is a helpful website i have linked which breaks down the effects of cocaine on individuals such as intense pleasure, feeling confident, anxious, angry or paranoid, feeling sick, body temperature rising etc. The website also has a very helpful visual of these effects and it may be something you can use (if it is free to use) or recreate in a table (if not free to use). I hope this helps with the development of your chapter :) --U3160677 (discuss • contribs) 04:21, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

== Emotional empathy and engagement == Hi, I found this article which looks at how cocaine can influences an individuals emotional empathy and emotional engagement. Furthermore, it goes onto explain how emotional empathy will differ depending on the age of onset. You may find this article interesting to add into your book chapter- https://reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/S0924977X15002655?token=A65A58B4DACE7587CDD0317176B4F7F33EDCF93199E1EF2DAD5068A4BDE3E0CB848D7C61F474CD4B833E3A4E008F2694 --U3190210 (discuss • contribs) 02:06, 27 August 2020 (UTC) ==

Hi, your chapter about the influence of cocaine on emotion is very interesting! I suggest checking out the following article https://hawaiianrecovery.com/rehab-blog/how-cocaine-affects-your-brain-body-and-emotions that goes into depth about how cocaine affects the brain, body and emotions as well as how to cope with addictions.

Hi there, I really enjoyed reading your book chapter and I feel as if I have gained lots of new knowledge surrounding this topic. I feel as if your chapter requires more evident based sources, for example peer reviewed articles, I feel this would help improve it. Below is some peer reviewed articles titles that you could search for and further use: 'Impaired emotional empathy and related social network deficits in cocaine users' -Wiley Online Library 'Re‐appraisal of negative emotions in cocaine dependence: dysfunctional corticolimbic activation and connectivity' -Wiley Online Library
