Yes.

What do you mean by Nature of Relationship? Like Formation/Dissolution

no, iv done that. i mean relationships in different cultures, and understudied relationships?
Dont bother with understudied if u hvnt got time, it came up in jan so unlikely it will again

Alright try and do Relationships in different cultures... I have done understudied relationships just yet, I will try and do it tomorow for 2 hours and then I will review all of my work and try to do as much essay questions as possible.

really? i just really had a panic attack over it, just looking at past papers and then i saw it and my heart sank! i can remeber my teacher saying that i shudnt bother covering it, but didnt explain why, and then i just saw it on the Jan 07 paper and was like, "if they havnt set it since jan 07, then it could come up!". so it definately was on the Jan 08 paper aswell?
Understudied relationship was on January 08... But Cultures is so easy to revise... just learn Mogadam(is that spelt correctly?) and learn Individualistic(western) and Collectivist (non western cultures)... and you can apply theories of formation as A02 like for example Sociobiological you can use for both Western and Non Western ..

Here's the essay I did...

I am also confsued!! :s-smilie: Surely they just asked for understudied? not psyc explanations tooo? ! ahh

I was told it was understudied. I doubt part of section 2 AND section 3 will be put into one question. Plus, understudied is a VERY broad area. I can't see how that's possible.
Exam tomorrow.. AHHHHHHHH.. lets get learning :biggrin:

'Outline research into one or more forms of biological rhythms' (12 marks)
Could i include studies on endogenous pacemakers and exogenous zeitgebers??

EDIT: You know how this is the end of the spec does that mean that if i fail i cant resit :|
Here comes the panic and 12 hours of cramming...
hey... am doing 2,3 and 15
i think that the q's what are most likely to come up are

2) relationship - love, breakdown then formation
3) enviromental stressor?
15) sex difference in parental inverstment OR sexual seletion?...

ive read thro the threads and ppls are sayin that intelligence might come up?but that came up in june 07? didnt it?...

Yeah you could I guess, but I think it's more about specific types of rhythms, ie. infradian/circadian/ultradian, so I'd mention stuff on the sleep/wake cycle, menstruation, sleep stages. (And the studies that go with them.. which, of course, I can't remember :mad:. )

Does anyone have any essays on relationships, such as dissolution/maintenance and love?

endogenous pacemakers are to do with biological clocks in the body, whereas exogenous zeitgebers are to do with synchronising the clocks with external cues


there's loads of case studies aswell, like, Siffre, WW2 bunkers, US nuclear submariners etc and then evaluate and see which is predominant, the pacemakers or zeitgebers
2) Maintenance/breakdown or Psychological explanations of love
3) Environmental stressors
5) Disruption of bodily rhythms

I'm hoping those come up!
Left my revision late so I won't be revising everything. May luck be on my side.
