Solid start although VERY concerning that portions of what you wrote have been deleted due to plagiarism. If this happens again you are in danger of losing all points for this assignment. Thus, make sure that you have read the peer-reviewed article enough times to truly understand the points being made so that you may then describe in your own words. In general, you have a good outline but there are several areas where you can expand: |
|||
* Review different assessment tools that exist to measure exercise addiction (e.g., Exercise Addiction Inventory) |
|||
* How does one differentiate between commitment (e.g., in serious athletes) and addiction? |
|||
* What is the history of this construct - i.e., when was it first studied, how has thinking evolved about it, what does the DSM-5 working group have to say about it (or in general about behavioral addictions); you may want to at least pay mention to the fact that there is some controversy over whether behavioral addictions reflect addictive behavior, compulsive behavior or impulse control problems. You can read the wikipedia article on behavioral addictions and link to this for more information (if you feel they do a good job of exploring this debate) |
|||
* Under "Causes" what types of risk factors are associated with exercise addiction (you mention athletics but are there certain personality traits and/or environmental characteristics thought to increase risk); have there been any cross-cultural studies of this construct? |
|||
* What are the rates... referenced but not included in epidemiology |
|||
Finally, under "Causes" I don't think you want the word corollary? |

Educational assignment
Educational assignment for Introduction to Abnormal Psychology at Linfield College--Vkraft (talk) 05:07, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- So, if I'm reading this page correctly, this is part of an assignment at Linfield College in Oregon, and St. Charles Community College in Missouri, and neither seem familiar with WP:MEDRS or WP:MEDMOS-- so how is this being coordinated? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:38, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Sandy; this is the section that gives the names of the instructor and ambassadors. There's also an ambassador steering committee; Cindy's on that. If you're interested in information about the overall education program I can find those links for you too. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 20:49, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- That's Missouri, but now Oregon is in here too, so still, how is this being coordinated? I'm having a hard enough time keeping the text on track, and wonder if the two programs are working together. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:27, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

- Hi Sandy, I am from Linfield College in Oregon and I tried contacting the students from Missouri but I have not heard back from them. So far there are four students from my school contributing to this article in coordination with our professor. Thank you for all of your work it has really helped us, we are all new to wikipedia and it has been a steep learning curve.--Vkraft (talk) 01:39, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- Oops, I missed the part of Sandy's note that pointed out there were two assignments here. I believe the Oregon one is not coordinated via the USEP. I'll leave notes for both instructors letting them know that two classes are both working on the same article, and will also let the USEP know -- perhaps we can provide on-campus support in Oregon. The Oregon course page appears to be User:Tatompki/Introduction to Abnormal Psychology Wiki-Project, and per Tatompki's user page she is the instructor and was inspired by the APS Wikipedia initiative to run this course, rather than coming in through the USEP. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 19:17, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- Over at Talk:Klazomania I'm dealing with another one where the professor is apparently not part of any program and doesn't read his talk page. This stuff is killing my watchlist, since a lot of neuropsych or TS/OCD-related articles I edit are getting hit by non-compliant editing from professors who don't know or explain policies.

Suggestions
This article could be improved by providing some statistics about how many people suffer from exercise addiction habits. It could also be beneficial to provide some information about how exercise addiction is measured.(Andrewdewolf (talk) 22:52, 28 September 2011 (UTC))
Our Group Plans for this Article:
Section 1: History (Andrew) Increase in Exercise Addiction over the years?, Popularity of Exercise?, When this disorder was first diagnosed?, Common forms of exercising for addicts?
Section 2: DSM (Tori) Definition of Exercise Addiction, Qualifications for having an Exercise Addiction
Section 3: Biological Effects of Exercise (Tyler)
Section 4: Epidemiology (Dom) Who is at risk?
Section 5: Signs and Symptoms (Tori)
Section 6: Treatment (Tori) Preventative Treatment, Types of Therapy, Most Effective Method
Section 7: Comorbidity (Dom) Other related disorders
Resources: Using Linfield journal database for articles
--Vkraft (talk) 03:26, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
- Our group?
- I've not heard of the "Linfield journal database", but please be sure sources used meet WP:MEDRS (basically secondary peer-reviewed articles, avoid primary research).
- Please see WP:MEDMOS on content-- specifically, Wikipedia:MEDMOS#Diseases or disorders or syndromes on sections.
- On DSM, I think you mean "Diagnosis"
- On biological effects, I think you may mean "Signs and symptoms"
- On demographics, I think you mean "Epidemiology"
- etc
SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:07, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
I added some of the information I found on this topic. I decided to combine the diagnosis and signs/symptoms sections. Let me know what you think.--Vkraft (talk) 23:16, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
Feedback on Plan
Exercise addiction is not listed in the DSM so you may end up wanting to re-organize some of this accordingly and discuss what disorders seem relevant (e.g., anorexia nervosa, addictions) and where it might fit in (including whether it ever has been looked at as it's own syndrome). Additionally, you were to identify a short list of resources (not the database where you will find them) with the idea that this would inform your initial outline for the article that you've shared here. Use the next several weeks to learn as much as you can about the construct and keep modifying this outline as you reorganize, cut and add. Tatompki (talk) 04:11, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
Faulty sourcing
Please review WP:MEDRS and Sources in biology and medicine; I have removed some lower quality sources and added sources compliant with Wikipedia medical sourcing. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 18:01, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
Behavioral Health Management
I can find no indication anywhere of what Behavioral Health Management (journal) is. It is cited here:
- Cumella, Edward (September 2005). "The heavy weight of exercise addiction". Behavioral Health Management 25 (5): 26–31.
and I can find nothing to indicate that's a peer-reviewed article, or what sort of journal it is. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:40, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- I just tried doing a search as well and found nothing, should this reference be removed??P0PP4B34R732 (talk) 22:06, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- Not until we get an idea what it is (but plagiarism should be checked for immediately on sources that aren't available online, since I've already found one instance). SandyGeorgia (Talk) 22:08, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- It's a defunct magazine that was published between 1994 and 2005 [1], and it was later merged with another publication in 2006 [2]. It was published by Medquest Communications and was a periodical for medical professionals (i.e. trade magazine). Sounds like it was minimally peer reviewed. Froggerlaura (talk) 15:27, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
Plagiarism
I've commented out plagiarized text, that was added here. The rest of the text (from the Johnston source) should be reviewed for same. Please see WP:PARAPHRASE and this Dispatch. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 22:00, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you for catching that I will be sure to mention this to my peers and make sure nothing else is plagiarized.--Vkraft (talk) 01:48, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks, Vkraft (I'm glad someone working on this article is reading the talk page)-- it would be helpful if you could check the rest of that same edit for plagiarism, since I don't have the source. Another helpful thing would be if editors working on this article would review the discussion above about the names we typically use for sections (see WP:MEDMOS and discussion above). Also, we still don't know what these "Linfield database" papers are, and they appear to be unreviewed. Since they are behind a paywall and others can't check, we need some idea of what they are-- they look like press-release-type college papers to me, and I don't have any indication we should be using them when there is plenty of info in peer-reviewed articles at PubMed (see WP:MEDRS). Thanks for using the talk page-- it helps! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:05, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- The Assessment section also seems to have been copied from here. [3] This was revealed by a Copyscape search. I have hidden this text for now. Graham Colm (talk) 14:26, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
