Re: Edexcel Psychology Unit 4You've got good memory. Yes so i used a study to give support as evaluation point for the explanation and compared learning explanation w my first explanation.(Original post by SMaddison93)
The evaluation question asked you to evaluate the explanation of anorexia you used initially, using research. It also asked to include a comparison in your evaluation.
Well, you dont need a high grade so you can relax. I need an overall A grade and so worried about the potentially high grade boundary and if i can maximise marks for each question
By the way, what did you put for the question on practical issue. Thats 6 marks right? And the other experiment on observation? Another6 marks? -

Re: Edexcel Psychology Unit 4There was only one 12 marker so I think the token economy one might have been 8(Original post by Pauly)

Re: Edexcel Psychology Unit 4I listed the basic raw mark scheme right above your post.(Original post by Pauly)
Anyone have any details on the questions on sciences.? There was a 2 marker and the rest? Trying to get an approximate raw grade overall
The only one I can't remember is the one after 'Why the Psychodynamic Approach isn't scientific' or something along those lines.

Re: Edexcel Psychology Unit 4i did B too. I wrote about Agency theory, and the fact that Milgram and Hofling back it up, but there are other studies that say there must be some sort of in between stage, the i did Eye Witness testimony, and i worte about how reconstructive memory means its not reliable anymore, and trials based on EWT are a major problem in society. i found it way easier...(Original post by Issy123)
I seem to be the only one who did the other 18 marker and not the ethics one

Re: Edexcel Psychology Unit 4Exam papers went up on Edexcel yesterday.
Mark schemes come out 17th July...
If anyone has an edexcel account they can access them (my old teacher used to let me log on through his but the passwords have now all been reset so I can no longer access it)
The only one I can't remember is the one after 'Why the Psychodynamic Approach isn't scientific' or something along those lines.
So if anyone's been a bit unlucky this year/ reading this thread next year, PM and I'll be happy to help!
