Also what is a self report?

Also what is a self report?


It's where participants give the results themselves rather than the researcher, so things like questionnaires and interviews. Observations wouldn't be a self report technique as the researcher notes down what happens, not the ppts.
For the self report question I just put questionnaires which can have open and closed questions and an interview which can be structured or unstructured how many marks do you think I will get?

A self-report inventory is a type of psychological test in which a person fills out a survey or questionnaire with or without the help of an investigator.

Ah okay I wrote where the participant speaks directly to the researcher and the researcher has to evaluate from it... Does that get any marks...?
What did people put for the minority influence and holiday question?
For the 12 M for the question about psychological research and working memory is it possible to get marks if you wrote about anxiety???? Ive asked people and they have all wrote about the working memory model!!

Hey for the 8 marker I didn't answer fully and ran out of time but I wrote a couple bullet points do you think I could still get marks?

Posted from TSR Mobile


is this for Asch?? can't even remember which was the 8 marker :s-smilie: i'm sure if ur points are relevant you'll get some marks, i know people who have put bullet points for their 12 markers and do fine :smile:
for the 12 mark on working memory i just talked about the working memory model with evidence to support and contradict how many marks would this get? is this even right?

for the strange situation question did we have to discuss the steps like how mother leave and comes and so stranger or can we just outline that it is obsevation and what was she measuring? Also for the question about stm in msm do u get marks if you spoke about unitary store


In the strange situation I did put some of the steps like mother leaves, I think you needed to get full AO1 marks but you were correct with what you said.

I put what you said in the question about STM and MSM and I did think it was a bit off topic but I reckon it'll be okay.

AAAHHH Im so happy its over I found it super hard and im scared now but just got think about paper 2 what do you guys reckons is highly likely on that paper ?
For the self-report I wrote their own opinions, feelings and opinions :biggrin: I honestly had no clue.
Would I get ANY marks?

I wrote about diachronic synchrony when talking about consistency with marcus, will i lose marks?


I did the same, but I don't see why that would lose you marks... did you explain it in context?

Yes that's what I wrote too. However for flexibility I wrote he should not change his view. Would that be correct?
