Not in the top band-so max of 11 or 12 (which isn't that bad really)

i saw saw a script where a guy got marked down from 12 to 9 for no IDA. So it's not too horrible a situation-better no IDA than bad IDA


So this 11/ 16 or 11/24?
How many IDA per question are you ment to do? I think I only wrote 1/2

Im sure it was out of 24?


24 :smile:

yep your right deindividuation was right, you could use slt but i used deindividuation.


Since it was the social psychological explanation of aggression, is institutionalisation not applicable??:confused:

LOOOL dont worry too much, they cant negative mark you so its all good as long as you have 4 points worth of a01 and i am not going to lie i really wanted to talk about mice too lol


I went full on challenge hypothesis and low 5-HIAA metabolite in suicide & psychiactric patients caused impulsive behaviour.. which could lead to aggression :/
Does criticising a study for being oversimplified count as an IDA?

For those of you who wrote about institutional aggression, this is what the examiners report said for the question that was similar to this in june 2012:

Some weaker responses appeared to be pre-prepared answers on institutional aggression,
which earned marks when factors were explicitly presented as social psychological

In other words as long as you related it to social and psychological explanations, you could gain marks. Also its guaranteed that there are hundreds of other people that made the same mistake so AQA could be generous and mark it

I assume you just add another 5/6/7 marks on top of that to get an A*?
