AQA Psychology Paper 3 Predictions 2018

What do you think the predictions are?
I do:
Gender
Schizophrenia
Forensic Psychology

Types of determinism
Cognitive explanations for offending
Family dysfunction (schizophrenia)
Anti psychotic drugs for schizophrenia
Atypical gender development
^All these came up last year, so I don't think it'll come up again

I've been told that media and culture may come up for gender.

Scroll to see replies

...

Kohlberg for gender,
^Or chromosomes and hormones
Psychodynamic could also be a possibility since it wasn't on paper 2

Social learning is unlikely due to the past 2 papers having behaviourism

Schizophrenia is piss easy to learn, only 6 pages in the revision guide however
Interactionist approach
or psychotherapies.

Thank you! I think the 16m will appear in either schizophrenia/forensic. Also saw on another thread that cultural bias might come up.

Determinism came up as a 16 Marker last year so unlikely to show up again.

I don't know if this is a stupid question or not, but what is the difference between a specimen paper and just a regular paper?

a specimen paper is just an exemplar paper put out by the exam board, no students sat the specimen papers, and so the regular papers are just past papers that have been proper exams in past years.

The specimen papers are ones the exam board released when they hadn't done any proper exams because it's a new spec. It's basically just more revision material

Research methods can appear in any paper, however if they do come up, they would most likely only be a few marks as majority of the research method questions come up in paper 2.

My teacher thinks:
• evolutionary or any of the economic theories will come up for relationships
• interactionist approach and CBTp and family therapy for schizophrenia
• all/any of the bio explanations for aggression or frustration-aggression
