Hi Jackie, When you are inserting citations, use the cite button at the top of the editing window and drop in either the URL (for a website), the ISBN (for a book), or the DOI (for a research article). Do not link the CV directly as a list of her awards. You need to write out the name of the major award she received (Lifetime Legacy Achievement Award from the Center for the Human Rights of Children at Loyola University Chicago).

Here are the links I sent you by email. For primary sources, you should include her books. https://www.amazon.com/Elizabeth-T.-Gershoff/e/B00PDTO55E/ref=la_B00PDTO55E_ntt_srch_lnk_1?qid=1508026706&sr=1-1

Here is the ISBN of a book she has co-authored: ISBN-13: 978-3319148175 Here is the ISBN of a book she has edited: ISBN-13: 978-0199943913

When you build the section on Representative Publications, pull her most cited research from Google Scholar. Read the abstracts and try to pull out the important ideas and her key contributions. Here are some you should definitely include:

Gershoff, E. T. (2002). Corporal punishment by parents and associated child behaviors and experiences: a meta-analytic and theoretical review. Psychological Bulletin, 128(4), 539-579.

Gershoff, E. T., Aber, J. L., Raver, C. C., & Lennon, M. C. (2007). Income is not enough: Incorporating material hardship into models of income associations with parenting and child development. Child Development, 78(1), 70-95.

Gershoff, E. T., Grogan‐Kaylor, A., Lansford, J. E., Chang, L., Zelli, A., Deater‐Deckard, K., & Dodge, K. A. (2010). Parent discipline practices in an international sample: Associations with child behaviors and moderation by perceived normativeness. Child Development, 81(2), 487-502.

Here are some links that will be helpful in establishing her notability. http://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2002/06/spanking.aspx

Here is the link to a post she wrote to convey her research findings on spanking to the general public:

You will want to create a hyperlink within your biography article to the Wikipedia article on corporal punishment that cites Dr. Gershoff's work:

Hi Jackie, Thanks for meeting with us at the lab today. Just as a reminder, you should try to summarize the awards and grants so that it does not read like a CV. I suggest you include only one or two of the most significant award/grants and perhaps a more recent one. You should also remove the amounts she received from the grants.

Remember to look at the websites that Patty suggested, and try to incorporate them into your descriptions about Gershoff's work. Celizas (talk) 18:27, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
