How does grade boundaries work for both papers? So like say if someone got a D in research methods then a C in core studies, what would that be overall? And what do you guys think on predictions for the grade boundaries /75?

Can anyone tell me a core study to use for each debate? Just struggling to find one for each debate! :frown:

Ok so:
Nature - Baron Cohen, casey, sperry
Nurture - Chaney, Bandura

Freewill - Bandura (they chose to imitate behaviour from models of the same gender) and Milgram (35% did not comply)
Determinism - Bandura, chaney, grant (all because of external influences or something) and Milgram since 65% complied
Individual - Freud (unconscious conflicts) and Milgram since 35% didn't obey
Situational - Milgram - 65% obeyed and Bocchiaro and also Loftus and Palmer (info after an event)
Ethics - Chaney and Bocchiaro (kept ethics) and Bandura and Freud (broke ethics)
Socially Sensitive research - Is sensitive - Bocchiaro, Isn't senitive - Freud
Psychology as a science - Loftus ans Palmer - scientific and freud isn't
Usefulness - you can argue that any of them are useful e.g Loftus and Palmer for legal institutions
Reductionism - Loftus and Palmer (isolated variables) and Casey and Milgram
Holism - Freud

I hope this helped :smile:

Good luck for tomorrow!

Loved it
Only question i wasn't too sure of was the issues one in section C. But the questions in section A were also a bit weirdly worded but it was fine!

Pretty good I think! The 12 marker on ethics was so good but there was a 10 marker on the evaluation in section c which I don't think I wrote enough for but other than that the questions were good! :smile:

For the twelve marker does it have to be 2 strengths and 2 weaknesses or can you do 3 strengths and one weakness or whatever?
