Since feelings are subjective, and dread is unpleasant, could we simplify this phrase to "feelings of dread"? Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 11:05, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm a student at USKUDAR UNIVERSITY in Istanbul/Turkey, I'm Improving this article for my genes, environment and behavior course assignment for spring semester 2022/2023. Hope I can improve it in a beneficial way. Alaa Ali M (talk) 12:33, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Alaa Ali M: Great! Please don't add citations to the lead per MOS:LEADCITE that are not absolutely necessary; try to to find a spot for them in the body. If you are going to make significant content changes (such as additions), make them to the body first, and only then make the needed adjustments in the lead, because the lead is not independent from the article body, but is merely a summary. Thanks —Alalch E. 13:25, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

sure, thanks for the advice. Alaa Ali M (talk) 13:31, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hoping to add some citations, improve the lead section, add a sports/competitive anxiety section to the "Types" heading with appropriate citations, grammar, etc, and re-organize and streamline the entire "Types" sub-section.

I read the comments above and will not add content to the lead section unless absolutely necessary. However, I will look to see if there are any improvements into organization or grammar that can be made. :) HuKnows (talk) 21:59, 29 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
