Copyediting
[edit]I am a student and this is my first time editing a page. I edited the Empathy page, the following were my changes:
- In Empathy (development): changed: 'By the age of two years, children normally begin to display the fundamental behaviors of empathy by having an emotional response that corresponds with another person'. To: 'By the age of two years, children normally begin to display the fundamental behaviors of empathy by having an emotional response that corresponds with another person's emotional state.' Made changes to add more clarity to the sentence and to highlight the important concepts.
- In Empathy (empathic anger): changed: 'It can be divided to trait and state empathic angers'. To: 'Empathic anger can be divided into two sub-categories: trait empathic anger and state empathic anger.' I made these changes in order to add clarity to the sentence.
- In Empathy (practical issues): changed: 'Proper empathic engagement helps one to understand and anticipate the behavior of another.' To: 'Proper empathic engagement helps an individual understand and anticipate the behavior of another.' This change was to add clarity to the sentence.
- In Empathy (practical issues) changed: 'Apart from the automatic tendency to recognise the emotions of others, one may also deliberately engage in empathic reasoning'. To: 'Apart from the automatic tendency to recognize the emotions of others, one may also deliberately engage in empathic reasoning.' Changed spelling error.
- In Empathy (practical issues) changed: 'A person may simulate 'pretend' versions of the beliefs, desires, character traits and context of the other and see what emotional feelings this leads to. Or, a person may simulate the emotional feeling and then look around for a suitable reason for this to fit.' To:' An individual may simulate fictitious versions of the beliefs, desires, character traits and context of another individual to see what emotional feelings it provokes. Or, an individual may simulate an emotional feeling and then access the environment for a suitable reason for the emotional feeling to be appropriate for that specific environment.' Made changes in order to add clarity and highlight key concepts.
- In Empathy, changed: 'Empathy has many different definitions. These definitions encompass a broad range, from caring for other people and having a desire to help them, to experiencing emotions that match another person's emotions, to knowing what the other person is thinking or feeling, to blurring the line between self and other.' To: 'Empathy has many different definitions that encompass a broad range of emotional states, from caring for other people and having a desire to help them, to experiencing emotions that match another person's emotions, to knowing what the other person is thinking or feeling, to blurring the line between self and other.' Made changes in order to condense the sentences and to promote clarity. Villasa4 (talk) 00:44, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
The following are the changes that I made to the Psychology page:
- In psychology (functionalism): changed ‘strains of thought’ to ‘popular theories of thought’ in order to add clarity to the sentence.
- In Psychology (developmental): changed ‘baby with a book’ caption on picture to ‘Developmental psychologists would engage a child with a book and then make observations based on how the child interacts with the object’. Made change in order to add more meaning to the picture that corresponded to the topic being discussed.
- In Psychology (Survey questionnaires): changed: Increasingly, web-based surveys are being used in research’, added : ‘for its convenience and also to get a wide range of participants.' Made change in order to highlight key concepts being discussed in the section.Villasa4 (talk) 00:44, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
The following are the changes that I made to the Theory of multiple intelligences page:
- In Theory of multiple intelligences: changed: 'Gardner argues that there is a wide range of cognitive abilities, and that there are only very weak correlations among them.' To: 'Gardner argues that there is a wide range of cognitive abilities, but that there are only very weak correlations among them.' Made change in order to fix grammar.
