AQA A2 Psychology PSYA3/PSYA4 Revision Thread 2016

like i say... they will all likely share similar IDA's...

That's awesome, thanks! My teachers are new to the A Level and so I don't really trust the marks I get. Do you know anybody that would be willing to grade any of my essays?

Yes, but you use different ones in each essay. For example use determinism and practical application in one, then use reductionism/limited view in another, and nature vs nurture, limitations of the theory and research etc etc.

Hold on... Why would the IDA for one Bio Rhythms impact what I can use of aggression, they're supposed to be marked as individual essays?
What if I have to do 3 essays on biology, that would mean I could only use reductionism and nature vs nurture once.... That's ridiculous?
You can't assign any old IDA to any essay

No no just make sure you don't use the exact same points for all essays, have some variation. Anyway if you elaborate and link the points effectively they shouldn't be the same. This is what I have been told and read around.

Well that goes without saying, but as long as you link it then you could use the same one... I will always use 'use of animals' when I have the opportunity
