Talk:Bioecological model

Category
This is not simply a matter of genetics and this category should either be deleted or expanded. Ccolemag7 (talk) 18:18, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi Ccolemag7, thanks for you work. I have wikified your contribution and added two new categories. Also I have removed the design you made here on the talk page, since the text is part of the article now. -- Mdd (talk) 19:00, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Current good article nomination
The article, as it currently is, will not fulfil the criteria of a good article. I recommend the authors to improve the referencing in the article: many claims are made without references. The article is also very jargon-heavy, which would turn off many readers without prior knowledge of the topic. The article could do with some images as well. Have a look at Good_article_criteria. With some work, this should become a good article. CabbageX (talk) 22:57, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Citations list useful for updating this article and related articles
You may find it helpful while reading or editing articles to look at a bibliography of Intelligence Citations, posted for the use of all Wikipedians who have occasion to edit articles on human intelligence and related issues. I happen to have circulating access to a huge academic research library at a university with an active research program in these issues (and to another library that is one of the ten largest public library systems in the United States) and have been researching these issues since 1989. You are welcome to use these citations for your own research. You can help other Wikipedians by suggesting new sources through comments on that page. It will be extremely helpful for articles on human intelligence to edit them according to the Wikipedia standards for reliable sources for medicine-related articles, as it is important to get these issues as well verified as possible. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 12:46, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Relationship to Ecological Systems Theory article
I am undertaking some editing of this article and Ecological Systems Theory article.

As Bronfenbrenner and Bronfrenbrenner & Ceci explicitly state, the bioecological model is an extension of ecological systems theory. This is discussed nicely in this article.

Currently the two articles overlap.

My question is, should they remain two articles or should the Ecological Systems Theory article be consolidated and then refer to this article as the mature form of the work?

(BTW, there is an excellent revision of the article in the Talk section of Ecological Systems Theory that was never incorporated into the published article.)

Alternatively, should the revised Ecological Systems Theory article be drawn on more heavily here? Nancydarling (talk) 14:39, 31 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I edited the beginning of the ecological systems theory article and am framing it as the broader umbrella theory. The bioecological article is placed as the final refinement of that initial theory.

I am planning on taking out much of the ecological part of this article (micro, macro, etc.) and refer to ecological system theory. That will give more focus in this piece to focus on the person characteristics the latter part of his work focused on. Nancydarling (talk) 20:04, 24 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I undertook some edits that include a stronger and more accurate intro. I started to eliminate overlap between this article and Ecological Systems Theory by removing a very inaccurate statement of the nested contexts (e.g., microsystem, ecosystem) that was here. This is better explained in the EST article and this article refers there.


 * I cleaned up some of the historical development system, consolidating the information on Vygotsky, shortening the info on Lewin, and adding Thomas (all are discussed in other published reviews, which are cited).


 * There is SO MUCH MORE WORK to do on this piece. Published work by Tudge and by myself and Bronfenbrenner's own writing on the development of the theory would add a lot. So would Ceci's obituary.  All could be cited ::Nancydarling (talk) 02:30, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
