Monogamy motivation comments "Hey, this is a really interesting chapter. I particularly like the discussion of the history of monogamy and how it slowly permeated Western culture until it was considered the norm. I thought the structure of your writing was easy to follow and developed well. One thing I would love to know more about is the studies you have mentioned in the 'Psychology' section. It would be relevant to the rest of your text if you mentioned when and where the studies were done, and how the data was collected - for example, did they ask a bunch of random people in the street or was this collected from marriage counselling or interviews etc. I love that you put in a link to the attachment style quiz - everyone likes quizzes! --U3090859"

Veganism motivation comments "Hey, great topic! I like the point you made about veganism not being a diet but a lifestyle choice. There are a couple of formatting things under the subheading 'From 1806': You have referred to a book, and the title needs to be capitalised, and a place that needs capitals as well. I like that you have made an effort to incorporate an interesting layout - starting with a large picture is very attention-grabbing. Well done! --U3090859"

Comfort eating and negative emotion comments "Hi there! What a great paper - it addresses a question that many people ask. I made a couple of small grammatical changes (for example, I changed it's to its) but just wanted to let you know I found it really interesting. --U3090859"

Cults and motivation "Fantastic work uploaded so far. You have a very clear academic style of writing, publishable! I find the subject of cults fascinating and have done a lot of my own research on the topic. One idea for external multimedia is to link readers to high quality documentaries available online. For example, I learned a lot from watching this one on the Jonestown massacres: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9o1vUSLhOs. Maybe in the 'See also' section you could have a little list of good docos. Try documentaryaddict.com under the Crime or Psychology section if you are having trouble finding good ones. Can't wait to read the rest of your article! --U3090859"
