Nice job, but userpage needs work

Nice job on the tutorials, but you did not follow the instructions for setting up your user page. Nice job, but only partial credit until you fix it. Check my userpage to see what it should look like. Let me know if you have any problems and when you make the changes. J.R. Council (talk) 21:49, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Possible Subject Ideas

I am very interested in the clinical side of psychology. I have found a few articles that need work, but one stands out to me in particular. I want to investigate the page on hypnotherapy. The Wiki warning was on top, mentioning that it needs a lot of work with citing and having authentic sources. What do you think of this idea Dane?

Here's the original article! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypnotherapy

Carlyhansen (talk) 20:19, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

The original hypnotherapy page lacks any reliable sources. Just from Googling on Google Scholar, I have found several credible sources for this topic. I will attach some later. Something to think about is finding good sources before editing the page so we can inform ourselves and be educated on the topic fully before writing an article on it. Dane - what do you think about the topic and the sources issue? Dane1213 (talk) 21:00, 17 September 2018 (UTC) Hypnotherapy is a good subject to explore for the first group assignment. Hypno means relating to sleep, theraphy means intened to relieve disorder. in the aspect of citing sources finding authentic sources our best bet is to explore NDSU library or find other research article already done on this topic. Carlyhansen (talk) 20:21, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

I found a few good articles that outline the therapy. I will post them below. There are articles on different kinds of hypnotherapy, which is interesting to look at. The original article has sections for each kind, maybe that's something we could do as well? There's also articles on what hypnotherapy can treat. It could be a good idea to include points on what hypnotherapy is used for and why/how it works to treat specific things, specifically illnesses/diseases.

Dane- could you pick another topic for a possible study and post it below? What interests you? What would you want to study? Carlyhansen (talk) 01:22, 17 September 2018 (UTC) Dane1213 (talk) 21:17, 17 September 2018 (UTC) I am interested in the idea of Personality disorder. I think this topic is a good topic to have as our second topic.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personality_disorder

https://web.a.ebscohost.com/ehost/pdfviewer/pdfviewer?vid=19&sid=2a1deb0e-a265-4fd2-bb78-75e488f73840%40sessionmgr4010 "Abnormal Disorder".

We can also explore "Personality" of different ethnic backgrounds. How people Learn or are taught?

Do you feel that the second topic is productive to explore Carly?

Hi! I think the topic wouldn't portray to our original ideas and a lot of the personality disorders on Wiki are well-written and thought out, whereas the page on hypnotherapy is lacking. I think personality disorders are very interesting though! I just don't think it would pertain to our first idea, and that's the one that needs more work.

Assignment FOUR - Wiki Project

Here are some problems that I found with the original article titled "hypnotherapy."

There is no history section in the article. I have no information on where hypnotherapy came from. There is an article titled "The History of Hypnotherapy and it's Role in Irritable Bowel Syndrome." This article gave insight on the historical value behind hypnotherapy and a subgroup of diseases that it can help cure/relieve symptoms for. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/j.1365-2036.2005.02697.x To me, the section on occupational accreditation is not relevant. I would delete all of those countries and their contribution to hypnotherapy. It doesn't seem like it matters, especially not for what we're researching, which is the therapy itself and how it works/what it's used for rather than where it is used. It's possible to have some history behind the first uses of it, and where it originated from, but I wouldn't have a section dedicated to it. Carlyhansen (talk) 02:49, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

I have been looking into more articles, and I found a few that can be applicable to our research, Dane. I think that we could go into the psychology behind what disorders that hypnotherapy can be helpful in treating. Here are some articles for that: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0140673684927934 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111/j.1365-2133.1995.tb00726.x https://gut.bmj.com/content/55/10/1403?utm_source=trendmd&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=gut&utm_content=consumer&utm_term=0-A https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD001008.pub2/abstract

There are a few books out there that talk about the process of hypnotherapy and how it works. I have linked a few below that are available to us online for free. https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=XlNF6_1QPGwC&oi=fnd&pg=PA2&dq=how+hypnotherapy+works&ots=_35YMPwHd8&sig=Axjf5GHM6iWXIZ9YKCCy6mrgOGE#v=onepage&q=how%20hypnotherapy%20works&f=false https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2Fs003840000248.pdf Carlyhansen (talk) 02:55, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

Questions for Dr. Council:

I tried editing on my sandbox, like the assignment says, but it doesn't allow me to sign off on it and I don't think it's public, so I created a new section on my talk page. Is that okay?

Should we be editing the original hypnotherapy page on Wiki? Or should we create a new one?
