Feedback

Research Interest

Topic is relevant and clearly stated (anxiety and resilience in college students)

Subheadings

There are no clear subheadings (e.g., “Anxiety,” “Resilience,” or “Instrument 1”), which affects clarity.

Construct Definitions

Constructs are mentioned but not clearly defined. For example, “resilience” isn’t described beyond what the CD-RISC measures.

Instrument Identified

Instruments (BAI and CD-RISC) are correctly identified and relevant.

Scale Used

For BAI and CD-RISC, you reported # of items but no scale description (e.g.,was it a Likert scale).

Internal Consistency

Alpha for CD-RISC is clear, but BAI’s alpha isn't mentioned, only test-retest r = .75 (which is good but should also have Cronbach’s alpha).

APA Style

Citations are present, but formatting is inconsistent (e.g., inconsistent parentheses, italics missing, and consistency in author year).

Writing Clarity

Writing is mostly clear but sometimes awkward phrasing; slight grammar issues
