I am quick-failing this nomination as:

• the article reads like an essay rather than an encyclopaedia article
• insufficient context is provided
• the article needs to be wikified.
• the article needs a thorough copy-edit. The first two sentences contain basic grammatical errors.
• references are rather vague, citing a sentence to a 45 page article as with citation #1 is insufficient. I have access to this journal and can find nothing that specifically supports the statement.

Please read the good article criteria and perhaps consider working with the Psychology WikiProject to knock this into shape. Jezhotwells (talk) 10:44, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
