Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2023/Ageing and motivation

Initial suggestions
Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions: Let me know if I can do anything else as you go along. Sincerely, James -- Jtneill - Talk - c 11:34, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
 * Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Ageing
 * Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Motivation
 * What psychological theories can help to understand? What is the main research in this area?
 * Breadth vs. depth. This is a broad topic, which is fine, but it will need to be an overview, with embedded links to more specific chapters. However, if you find that you are interested in a specific aspect of this topic we can also tailor a different, more specific topic.


 * Hi James,
 * Thank you for your suggestions, I would read them carefully.
 * Kind regards,

Reference Suggestions
Hi Frank, while I was researching my "Flourishing in the elderly" topic I came across the following references that may be useful to you. They are more about motivation than emotion, which is why I thought they may be useful for you. Best of luck with your chapter, I look forward to seeing it. Cheers Jorja References:

Minor Suggestion
Hey Frank,

Your assignment is looking great, really looking forward to seeing it finished! I would suggest to add a round box to emphasise your case study and make it a side, extra point rather than a whole section for it. I would recommend integrating it throughout the assignment in about 2 or three spots!
