Hey,
Does anyone have any idea of what might come up in this summer's psychology unit 1 and 2 exams (spec B)? I have been told by my teacher that the approaches section may include an essay on the biological approach as this hasn't come up in a while.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Abbie xo

Hey,
Yeah i think a lot of people have been told this so better get revising it! Hope it doesn't though as I find it the most difficult approach to get my head around!

In the biological approach do we talk about bio-psychology too?

You can talk about anything biology related I think. You can bring in structures of the brain as well, as long as you link it back to the question :-)

What would be involved in brain structures?

Obviously you can also mention other factors like hormones and chromosomes, Turner's/Klinefelter's syndrome, evolution etc just as long as you link clearly back to the question

I think the behaviourist approach may come up as well, but that's just my opinion. The only time it came up was in the very first exam on the AQA website - Jan or June 2011 I think. As for gender, my teacher seems to think cognitive might come up which is somewhat good because we can talk about both Kohlberg and gender schema :-)

I was discussing approaches with my tutor and we both think it's either going to be Biological or Social Learning Theory.

I just don't understand how both teachers and exam boards are expecting us to do really well in everything when there are no jan exams, exams are getting harder and grade boundaries are going up!?

My teacher's all like "It's a good thing because you can use what you've learnt from psyb2 and apply it in psyb1" it's the same thing as what my business teacher said too!I hate the fact there's no January exams
exams would have been 10x more bearable D: But I think we'll be okay! It just makes us smarter :P!

Same! It's just stressful haha. I would have preferred having January exams 100%. It would have acted as a wakeup call as well since it only hit me about two weeks ago how much work I have to do

I started to panic then xD It's alright, I just need a little more preparation for psyb1 and a little more for psyb2! I need to work harder on my business studies though, I always procrastinate!
I'd of preferred January exams too, 100% That's life though -.-

What does everyone think will come up on the explanation of gender approaches, I have a feeling it will be kohlbergs theory and gender schema, also any ideas for psyb2?
