there was sooo many 2 markers, bet you they are going to be stingy with mark allocation!!
SO IM SO HAPPY! I'd gotten like NO REVISION IN ON DAY CARE AND ATTACHMENT!!!!

But I had to blag on the 12 marker :frown: How did you all find it?

I swear we always go into the exams
with the expectations of hard ass questions and then we realise that they were nice to us this year ;-)

The paper was pretty straightforward!

I messed up completely on the anxiety/eyewitness testimony one though. I started writing about a study i saw on TV in hopes of getting marks.
The rest i think was a walk in the park..

For Bowlby, what did you guys write to evaluate? I wrote about Harlow's continuity supporting it, Lorenz' imprinting supporting it and Tronick et al. supporting it with monotropic bonds. Then I wrote as an evaluation point that Rutter & Schafer & Emerson had done studies on multiple attachments which Bowlby had not accounted for, and about the temperament hypothesis being unexplained in Bowlby's theory.
So for the 12 mark question I blanked out when it came to evaluation points. So, i went with the (W) Czech Twins and (S) Genie and linked them back to what the theory suggests.

Does anyone know if either of them are right, or will at least pick up a few marks?

I did exactly the same as you (but a few more in) and they're perfectly acceptable evaluation points! As long as you say that Genie supports Bowlby's sensitive period/continuity hypothesis/internal working model and that the Czech twins oppose those three things, you should be fine :smile:
