Relationships, Schizophrenia and Forensics here. Don't really have any predictions aside from the fact that I expect to see three essays in this paper, given that AQA have a habit of trying to spread 6 essays across the three papers every year. Then again, with some of the content focus being difficult, they could be nice and give us a bit of an easier time with this one and only give us two. But yeah, I'd prepare fully for all chapters.

for the evaluation points of issues and debates i was told we could use examples of where each issue is seen in psychology? is that true? eg. The humanistic approach supports the idea of free will.

yeh pretty much for issues and debates it requires a lot of our knowledge of the other chapters for evaluation points

Hi, I was wondering does anyone have any notes on Issues & Debates, Gender or Forensics that you wouldn’t mind sharing?

Those are the only topics I’m behind on, so would greatly appreciate it!!

If u know which topics in psychology support/refute free will then that's fine. Include specific examples from humanistic if u can, e.g. Roger's self concept and the Person Centred Therapy, why is this free will and so on. I feel like with Issue and Debates, although there's a lot of content, if u know ur approaches/gender/psychopathology topics fairly well, then u can just be flexible and creative with it I guess. Just jot down the ones u can remember and explain why it is or isn't freewill/determinism if this question comes up. Likewise for nature and nurture u could essentially do the same for them too.
