Oh bloody hell case studies came up! And i was thinking about revising it last night but didn't :/ but how weird that behaviourist perspective came up but with freaking nature/nurture debate! I ha to blag the outline for it but i think every other question was okay! And woah questionnaires on section A too! Ha proper blagged my way through that as well! So I think it went okay but don't know how rubbish i've done :P

Yeah, I read through some bits, but just didn't like the last question and didn't have enough time to properly think about it :P
I did nature/nurture, how about you? xxx

Thought it was a good exam! Nothing to dodgy in terms of questions, wasn't too sure on 8E though!

Something to do with to what extent does the behaviourist approach support the nurture side of the nature/nurture debate.

Just couldn't think of why it didn't support it very well -_-

Yeah same as me! I just talked about nurture normally looking at the mind, and behaviourism rejecting it. It was definite bull**** :P
And I felt like there weren't many differences between behaviourism and physiological

Thankfully, OCR were fair this time! That was not a bad paper!

The "Two what extent" one was weird. But I said it was all nurture. ;D

I rushed with my handwriting though. Feel pity for the examiner marking my work. And I almost forgot to do the first question! (Because I did procedure first) and then like 2 seconds before the exam finished, I realised my hypothesis was unfinished so, in panic, I wrote what I could :tongue:

But not a bad paper :smile:

How weird in section A they asked for an "aim" of a study instead of a hypothesis lol

Ohh God, I forgot to answer the first question as I always do the procedure and write the aim, omg that 3 marks could be a difference between a C and a D. FREAKING HELL

I think this was a Good Paper, definately better than Jan. :smile:

I did the Behaviourist/Nature/Nurture one, but I had to rush the last 2 questions because I spent too much time on section 1. Hopefully I can get a B on this or I won't get into Uni. :frown:

Btw what did everyone put for the aim?, has an "aim" question ever come up before? I was a little surprised with that one.

I did cast studies. I was gonna do n/n but didn't like a couple of the questions asked on it. What grade you hoping for??

well at least that's one common thing we did, I studied no debates or issues at all so that's why I went for case studies

i thought it was a great paper! i did the n/n behaviourist in section B and tbh you could of acted like the whole thing was behaviourist except for 8A cos it asks for both sides of the debate but the similarities and differences were two easy ones to compare coss you can argue nature and nurture again for a difference then reductionist or deterministic for a similarity! question e was tricky but for my against it supporting i talked about it using unnatrualistic envrionment like how in watson and raynor it is forcefully conditioned so doesnt support how we learn in nurture in real life so isnt representaive to be able to support it? but it was bull**** haha
