Susan Folkman
- ... that psychologist Susan Folkman coined the terms "problem-focused coping" and "emotion-focused coping"? Encyclopedia of Health Psychology
- ALT1:... that psychologist Susan Folkman was the University of California, San Francisco's first full-time director of their Osher Center for Integrative Medicine? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
- ALT2:... that psychologists Susan Folkman and Richard Lazarus introduced the idea of using cognitive appraisal to deal with stress and coping?

The article is new, long enough, and very well referenced. I see no neutrality or copyright issues. The hooks are all cited but I do not think they would draw in readers. The article has a potential for more interesting hooks; for example, Folkman being a stay at home mum for 12 years between earning a BA in history and embarking on an academic career in psychology. (I removed the bit about being a stay at home mum because it was not in the source, but I trust the information is out there somewhere). I am also intrigued by the fact that she first qualified as a historian before becoming an eminent psychologist. Can this be explained in the article a bit better? It might even make for a good hook, unless it's not so unusual in the US.
A couple of additional remarks. The subject is so evidently notable that I find it surprising that this is a new article on English Wikipedia. Catalan and French Wikipedias have had articles about Folkman since 2017. The article could use a portrait; I suggest asking the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine to change the license of this photograph to either Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Generic (CC BY-SA 2.0) or Attribution 2.0 Generic (CC BY 2.0). Their FlickR account might be inactive (I am not sure) but perhaps there is another way to contact them. Surtsicna (talk) 20:54, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
- Surtsicna, I have emailed Dr. Folkman and she has provided a photo but forgot to include the permissions. I am waiting on a response from her. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:15, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
- Even better! I now see the article is missing a citation for the date of birth. Hopefully one can be found. Surtsicna (talk) 22:38, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
- Surtsicna, still working on the photo. Re her birthday: on WikiData [1] her birthday is sourced to [2]. Is this okay? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 04:14, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
- A photo is not required for DYK; it would just be a very useful addition (and it might make for a lead hook). I suppose that could work as a DoB reference. Surtsicna (talk) 11:56, 8 February 2020 (UTC)
- Surtsicna, So is it G2G besides the photo? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:02, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
- HickoryOughtShirt?4 The lack photo is not an issue. It's that I think the article could produce much more interesting hooks, which is one of the criteria. Surtsicna (talk) 14:37, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
- Surtsicna I obviously do not want to speculate but from my experience, it doesn't really matter what your BA is in (unless it's pre-med etc) as long as your grades are good. I have a feeling, based on the time frame, she may have been encouraged to just get a degree and have children. I cannot find any references expanding on her history degree.

- ALT3:... that after earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in history, psychologist Susan Folkman picked up her education 12 years later? An advance for integrative medicine "After spending her first 12 post-college years raising her four children."
