there is deffo a tread going on there. gunna be the cognitive approach or the behavioural approach imo

Oh crap. I hate the cognitive approach with a passion - is there any research for it we can use for evaluation etc?

On the plus side, I think this paper has slightly fewer studies to memorise than PSYA1 (or easier ones at any rate)...

Yeah I learnt waay to many for PSYA1, and was still getting stressy that I didn't know enough!

Abnormality only really has case studies if I remember correctly...

Uh, the only two case studies I thought there were for abnormality are Phineas Gage and Charles Whitman? O.o

There's Clive Wearing, Freud's Anna O and Rat Man, and Watson's Little Albert. I don't think they're too important though.

Actually Anna O could be useful in psychoanalysis to show that it works?

Has anyone got any resources or any good way to explain the acute and chronic responses to stress? I just can't seem to ever remember or understand it too well.

Yeah, I knew about Little Albert :redface:

Just for some reason didn't think it was a 'case study' :colondollar:

What evaluation and research would you include for the cognitive approach?
Also, what would you write about independent behaviour?
HELP!
