A2 - Edexcel Psychology June 2016

but the research method for mumford & whitehouse is questionnaires

They also interviewed anyone who got 20+ on eat and 140+ on bsq so you'll be fine

can someone actually translate to me what the 3rd question was actually about ?? i think i might have misread it but i thought it said "describe 2 symptoms of schizophrenia that may be considered abnormal by the social norms definition" like ummm is it not all of them i don't understand- i wrote about hearing voices n culture and being isolated or something in the end lmao

also for the is psychology a science questions; i wrote about the same studies in b) and c) do you think that matters?? swear down they were like the same question

let us pray now to the low grade boundaries god

I wrote about catatonia (negative symptom) and described it and auditory hallucinations and how they go against social norms because you wouldn't expect someone to remain motionless and also to talk to themselves.

Which question are you talking about? Do you mean the studies about biological vs social psychology as a science and the one after?

ahh that makes sense I guess!! oops

Yeah haha I used Milgram and Raine et al in both oops

It wasn't DESCRIBE, it was EVALUATE. You will get ZERO marks for describing.

I evaluated social learning theory compared with cognitive explanation

Is that a lab experiment for both? I did yuille and cutshall (field) and milgram (lab)
