issues and debates - edexcel alevel psychology

currently struggling on how to revise for my issues and debates side of the course - how much do I need to know per approach for each issue and debate, what do the evaluation points for these types of questions consist of??
i cant seem to find much helpful content online, most of it is very basic - so if anyone has any help that would be very useful coming from a very stressed year thirteen!

Hi, I do AQA A level Psych but Issues and debates are fairly similar in terms of structure and marking I think. But a website that has helped me for Issues and debates is this link its helped me so Im hoping its a good resource for you: AQA A-level Psychology: Social Influence Revision| Learndojo

hey! i do edexcel asw
the way im going about it is, i made a mindmap situation for every issues and debates topic and gave two examples for each chapter (like social control, talk about 1. obedience and how obedience can be important for stability of society, but can be miused like in milgram 2. prejudice and how reducing it through social control where you boost self esteen - supported by sherif et al)

and for each topic, im finding a exam style question and writing an 8 or 16 marker on it, and ill give it to my tr to mark

the resources im using is quizlet, the eye book from illuminate publishing, psychology wizard
