Talk:Behavioral confirmation

Behavioral Confirmation edit

I thought I would just let you know I am doing an essay on a paper from 1981 (Self-Perceptions Following Social Interaction, Fazio, Effrein and Falender) which contains a description Behavioral Confirmation. It is still attributed to Snyder but this paper is 3 years earlier than the date you cite of 1984.

some thoughts edit

Don't be offended but i may have some pointers for you in order to expand this article. You have the definition yes. But why don't you include some key people, and or a couple of studies done on the matter. You can take my opinion with a grain of salt if you like. Im just offering some assistance. I am new to this and this is one of my tasks. Thenick0311 (talk) 00:15, 21 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sarah, I like the direction you are taking with this article. I think that the inclusion of a critique section is a great idea and that you should continue to expand upon. Keep up the great work with this page. Essercc (talk) 06:33, 6 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Social Psych Peer Reviews edit

Hi Sarah!

I like how you have the article set up. I especially like the history and critique sections. I think the history section is an important part of fully understanding what behavioral confirmation is. Provided there is more information available to you, maybe this is something you can expand on. I also like how there are examples. I think this article is going to be very informative and is headed in the right direction! Keep up the good work!
