Psychology edexcel 2017 un-official mark scheme

Hi everyone, been looking on here for ages now for a Edexcel unofficial mark scheme for the paper we all sat today, lets keep this simple;

Post the question and the question number if you can remember it, then the answer you think it is, people should then comment with other ideas or correct answers for the questions.

I think everyone wants this, that's why I am creating it. Good luck for your other exams!

A structured interview, this would mean that Abigail would have to pre-determine questions and establish what she wanted to ask the participants, a structured interview means that her procedure will be more standardised and subsequently increase the reliability of the participants answers and her results.
