So would people think that, generally, this paper was easier or harder than last year's?

Would sports and warfare be counted as two separate explanations?

About the same - there was a lot of choice in this paper though... like relationships formation or maintenance and with the evo aggression you could've talked about infidelity and jealousy or group displays so... I'd say the same

Ran out of time and didn't get to mention jealousy and infidelity... Because I left that question last

As long as you mentioned than one explanation, you should be ok but you are limited to half marks.

There was so many explainations you could've used!
Jealousy and infidelity
Sports and warfare
I know some even do that lynch mobs stuff?

Probably around the same as last years- due to a lot of people missing the gender schema question that will bring boundaries down.
I explained jealosy in detail for A01, but then mentioned infidelity, but didn't explain what it was.
And I'm pretty sure it didn't say you needed two explanations right?
It was a 4+16 marker in the end, so you don't need much A01.
Guys can someone explain how much we have to write for 10 mark "essay"? I know how to do the scenario questions, but when it comes to the 10 mark essay how much do we write? How many studies eval point etc

The classification for schizophrenia...it's unlikely to be a 24 marker right...wats the maximum mark it can be?


My teacher told us the maximum it could be would be 8 marks as its only outline so is purely AO1 :smile:

Anyone doing Anomalistic for psya4? Do u know if Saj is doing predictions for this?


I'm doing it too. There's always a 10 mark question so he can predict that I suppose and he's given predictions for the other application topics in PSYA4 so I'm assuming he will do soon... I hope

Lmao I know 😂 I think it's 4 marks A01 and 6 marks application so you basically just need to apply it to the scenario. About 2 studies I'd say?

For a 10 marker I'd say about 1 page of writing?

Discuss the learning approach to explaining initiation of gambling
