ID's?

If you mean the 8 marker, then yes! I also gave an example of that with Burt and the 11+ exams.
I completely messed up the 8 marker on ethical implications and forgot all about it and wrote about protection from harm, debriefing 😡😡
Do you guys think a strength of reductionist approach is you can operationalise variables easier?

Is frustration agression hypothesis a social psychological explanation of aggression??


Yes, that deindividuation and Social Learn Theory
For Comorbidity is it how it questions the validly (accuracy) when diagnosing?

For symptom overlap it was a 2M was it just to put how the symptoms of SCHZ and other conditions are the same, example with bipolar with hallucinations?

For the relationship partner preferences, I put intersexual selection for females and evaluated in how supporting evidence is criticied for methodology issues etc... is that right?

I wrote about females having an ova cell, which is large, static and ltd produced. So requires energy, have a preference to males who can provide resources and also sexy sons hypothesis of height etc. Then my limitation is how supp research is criticised for methodology issues being Demand characteristics etc like Clark and Hatfield?
