Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2020/Pill-testing motivation at music festivals

Gender differences
Hi there. This sound like a very interesting topic. I was wondering if you had considered gender differences? I am not sure if there is much research out there at this current stage however maybe something to mention for further research (e.g. does there need to be different motivation methods to encourage pill testing behaviours in men and women?)U3191761 (discuss • contribs) 07:28, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Pill-testing in Europe
Hi. I suggest that providing information regarding pill-testing in European countries such the Portugal, UK & Switzerland. This could be a useful way to gain insight into how pill-testing at music festivals has shaped attitudes in the community around drug-use as these countries have allowed pill-testing for quite some time in comparison to Australia. I look forward to reading your book chapter later on. BirdU3171984 (discuss • contribs) 23:26, 26 August 2020 (UTC)

Comments
Hi, this is an interesting topic. Perhaps you could talk about government legislation and the related controversy between political parties, as well as sniffer dogs and police presence and related cases on people overdosing or acting irrationally out of fear.

Hey there! This is a great and controversial topic within the music festival industry! Adding on to the comment above, I think it would be great to include how Gladys Berejiklian (NSW premier) is adamant in not including pill testing at festivals, but rather increasing police presence. I believe that this has a large impact on the consumption of potentially lethal substances and further increases fear of authority at music festivals. From this, some music festivals were also seen to be struggling to afford the forced increase of police presence (prior to Covid-19). This article may be helpful in demonstrating Gladys' stance on the issue: https://www.afr.com/politics/nsw-to-crackdown-on-music-festivals-again-20191016-p5312g#:~:text=Premier%20Gladys%20Berejiklian%20said%20the,prepare%20a%20safety%20management%20plan.&text=The%20state%20government%20in%20February,deaths%20in%20as%20many%20months. Hope this helps ! :) --U3190016 (discuss • contribs) 12:51, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

News articals
Hi, I am excited to view this page once complete. I have been following some of the news articles around pill testing over the last few years and suggest you have a look into these articles as well, it might be a good way to see the different arguments for and against.

Social influence
Hi, I'm looking forward to reading your completed chapter. Something that I thought might be interesting to consider for this book chapter is the influence of social norms and peer influence as festivals are very social events. Good luck ! ---U3192645 (discuss • contribs) 07:32, 29 August 2020 (UTC)

Additional theories
Hi! You have a very interesting topic. Some other interesting theories you could explore would be Drive Theory or Expectancy value theory of achievement motivation. Looking forward to reading your book chapter once it is done! U3177230 (discuss • contribs) 07:57, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Title/Sub-title
Hi!

This seems like it will be an interesting topic!

I did notice, your title and subtitle need to be seperated!

Title/Sub-title
Hey there Really intersting topic, I think it would really help for you to try and compress a lot of the information your trying to presnet, with only 4000 words on a large idea. Maybe have a look at using analogy boxes and compressing ideas into boxes so to make the ideas stand out better. thanks --Oscar3176498 (discuss • contribs) 02:59, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Adding a Table
Hi, this topic seems really fascinating. Just a suggestion that you could use a table to summarize the external and internal factors that impact pill taking in your illicit drugs and music festivals section. Here is a Wikiversity link to table templates.--U3190415 (discuss • contribs) 00:46, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Some idea's
Hi, This topic sounds really interesting. I was thinking you could also address the issues with pill testing along with the advantages. While people can be made aware of what they are taking, they are not told if what they are taking is too much. Many people have overdosed even after pill testing. here is an article: https://www1.racgp.org.au/newsgp/clinical/hard-line-approach-to-pill-testing-%E2%80%98failing%E2%80%99-to-sa There is also the thought of pill testing to expand outside of music festivals, what do you think of this? Here is another article I found interesting: https://ndarc.med.unsw.edu.au/blog/six-reasons-Australia-should-pilot-pill-testing-party-drugs Good luck! --U3201178 (discuss • contribs) 00:12, 15 Ocotber 2020 (UTC)

Reframing overview
Hello! I really enjoy the scope of your topic, you've done a great job at explaining the motivation behind pill testing. One suggestion that may be of interest is to reframe the overview point "Brief introduction to how can specific motivation theories and research help motivate people to engage in pill-testing." Something like "Brief introduction of how motivation theory and research explain pill-testing engagement" may be a bit more clear and concise. --U3180567 (discuss • contribs) 05:02, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

Social Contribuiton
Hi there, I really enjoyed reading through your book chapter, I found that the case study made your topic become clear, and the question below the case study was very useful as it makes the reader think about what they have just read. I feel a lot more familiar around the topic of pill testing now that I have read your chapter, Excellent Job. --U3187388 (discuss • contribs) 08:30, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
