I thought there isn't enough detail for a 12 marker to come up on the cognitive interview or memory improvement stratergies/research into mnemonics?


I thinks its unlikely but im trying to prepare for all possibilities and it only takes 5 minutes to do an essay plan so its worth it imo

It's in social, it's a demonstration of conformity. I don't think it's named on the spec but I'd say its one of the more interesting studies. There is a lot of YouTube footage about it that might be worth a watch.
Guys is they any chance of a 12 mark question on encoding, capacity and duration for STM and ltm?
Who else is freaking that its less than 2 weeks until the Psy1 paper?!
Long term effects of institutionalisation?
hey guys
I was doing old past papers for unit 2 (june 2010 and jan 09) and a question on the emotion focused approach keeps coming up ( even as an 8 marker!!) the problem is this isnt even on the spec. do we need to know this or is it part of the old spec cause i have never come across it???

You shouldn't need to know that as it's in the old spec. For any clarification, you can check the up-to-date spec on the AQA Website. :smile:
Does anyone have last years Unit 1 Paper, or the questions that came up?
Do we need to know about defense mechanisms for Freud's psychodynamic approach to abnormality?
