sorry me again :P

i am trying to learn the studies at the moment for the stress chapter (the LAST PART TO LEARN WOOOOO), but im getting abit muddled as to what researcher goes where... my brain is just not functioning.

what researcher are you using for what part?

for example, i know i will use keicolt-glazer for chronic and accute stressors (using those studies he did).

when it comes to the cardiovascular section i get lost, n the life events and daily hassles (i know about the SRRS)...

apart from that, all good!



thanks :3 i shall try replying to people tonight and help them... if i can... :/

Hey, does anyone have an answered question on 'Outline and evaluate the Cognitive approach' (12 marks)?

Not sure to be honest, I havent seen it appear in a while so if you go by its recency then it will most likely appear. I wouldn't mind as its quite simple to talk about and evaluate.

What do you think?

[Saif95]

How do you evaluate 'Outline and evaluate explanations of conformity' ?? Do you talk about social impact theory...?

What paper did that appear on?

It asks you to outline the explanations of conformity which are normative and informational conformity.

So how would you evaluate on a Q like that? What are the A02 points?

Yeah same, wouldn't mind like. I feel the 12 marker is most likely going to be in abnormality.

Not sure because it's kind of hard to evaluate an explanation of something. What paper did that come up in because I've not seen anything like that in any of the past papers I've done?

I really hope so!

I really hope so!

It was an 8 marker in June 2010 question 8!!
..therefore it is a possibility coming up as a 12 marker on Tuesday!
A01 is obviously talking about NSI and ISI but A02...?

I really hope it is on abnormality too...cognitive approach especially.

For this exam will we need to revise research methods as we did in unit one??

The only part of research methods I've seen in past papers are ones relating to questionnaires such as: "Outline a limitation and advantage of using questionnaires in stress studies."

There is a lot less emphasis on it in Unit 2, at least from my point of view.
