Can someone tell me how to answer questions such as this.

"Discuss reductionism with reference to two or more psychological theories"

Do we give example of reductionism in psychology and just evaluate it? For example in physiological psychology it is reductionist because they reduce all behaviour to the functiong of neurotransmitters etc?

yeah, preferably do one that is extremely reductionist and one that isn't so much.

You need to focus on two "approaches" as it were. For example, evolutionary psychology and physiological psychology and discuss reductionism with regards to each. Describing the reductionist aspects for A01 credit, then commenting on them for A02 credit.
