This Overview section should be concise but consist of several paragraphs which engage the reader, illustrate the problem, and outline how psychological science can help.
* Focus questions:

* How is emotionality experienced by Indigenous Australian people?

## Emotionality

* Define emotionality
* Importance of understanding emotionality

### Motivations of emotionality

This section would explore the key empirical literature relevant to the psychological science and motivations pertaining to emotionality.

### Effects of emotionality

Within this paragraph, there would be information regarding the general effects of emotionality and the varying types of emotions the emotionality is inclusive of.
- Emotionality is a key component of subjective experience that influences memory. It has been found that the emotionality of words affects memory monitoring, specifically, judgments of learning, in both cued recall and free recall paradigms.
* Suggestions for this section:
* For the topic development, provide at least 3 bullet-points about key content per section. Include key citations.
* For the book chapter, expand the bullet points into paragraphs.
* If a section has a lot of content, arrange it into two to five sub-headings such as in the interactive learning features section. Avoid having sections with only one sub-heading.

## Emotionality for Indigenous Australian people
### Emotional needs of Indigenous Australian people

This paragraph would outline the emotional needs of Indigenous Australian people, the importance of having these emotional needs met and how the needs vary according to their self, community and Country.

### Effects of emotionality for Indigenous Australian people

Within this paragraph, there would be how emotionality is expressed and experienced by Indigenous Australian people.
* "Embracing emotionality ultimately enabled me to engage in knowledge building as well as advocacy with and for Aboriginal women in prison". It is important to explore the positive and negative effect of emotionality for female and male Indigenous Australian people and how this is experienced within various settings.
* "The findings are consistent with biopsychosocial models and provide a more nuanced understanding of the patterns of risks, resources and adaptation that impact on the physical health of Aboriginal youth". This article explores the presence of higher negative emotionality among Aboriginal youth living in high risk family environments.

## Case studies

Case studies describe real-world examples of concepts in action. Case studies can be real or fictional. A case could be used multiple times during a chapter to illustrate different theories or stages. It is often helpful to present case studies using feature boxes.

### Boxes

Boxes can be used to highlight content, but don't overuse them. There are many different ways of creating boxes (e.g., see Pretty boxes). Possible uses include:
* Focus questions
* Case studies or examples
* Quiz questions
* Take-home messages
* Feature box example
* Shaded background
* Coloured border

### Links

Where key words are first used, make them into interwiki links such as Wikipedia links to articles about famous people (e.g., Sigmund Freud and key concepts (e.g., dreams) and links to book chapters about related topics (e.g., would you like to learn about how to overcome writer's block?).

### Tables

Tables can be an effective way to organise and summarise information. Tables should be captioned (using APA style) to explain their relevance to the text. Plus each table should be referred to at least once in the main text (e.g., see Table 1 and Table 2).
Here are some example 3 x 3 tables which could be adapted.

### Quizzes

Quizzes are a direct way to engage readers. But don't make quizzes too hard or long. It is better to have one or two review questions per major section than a long quiz at the end. Try to quiz conceptual understanding, rather than trivia.

## Conclusion

The Conclusion is arguably the most important section. It should be possible for someone to read the Overview and the Conclusion and still get a good idea of the topic.
* Suggestions for this section:
* What is the answer to the question in the sub-title (based on psychological theory and research)?
* What are the answers to the focus questions?
* What are the practical, take-home messages?
