An excellent resource which should be used by all AQA psychology teachers. A Duggan, Teacher & Independent Reviewer

What do teachers say about this resource? (5991, 5992)

Overall the resource is a very good source of information... This can be used to really stretch the students understanding of the topic. The exam style questions are extremely useful, especially as there aren't that many exam question available for this new specification.

R Keeley, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

I liked this resource and found it interesting and applicable to students. Given that the approaches are fundamental in many other areas of psychology, it is imperative that students fully understand the similarities and difference. The resource includes real life examples to put ideas into context and aid students’ understanding. Complex ideas are broken down and made easier to understand. The resource coherently and comprehensively covers the main approaches listed in the specification.

J Wilde, NQT & Peer Reviewer

I liked the key term glossaries at the start of the chapters and at the end. I also liked it had the answers to the example questions towards the back of the booklet.

M Ransom, Teacher & Peer Reviewer

A comprehensive introduction to the topic area at about appropriate level for the new A level. Could potentially replace need for text book.

K Walker, Senior Examiner & Peer Reviewer

I liked this resource. The Writer has included a lot of information some of which is used at first year university level. The humanistic approach has been well outlined. It is not an approach used in AQA Psychology. The resource fully reflects the high level of learning AQA is trying to achieve for A level. excellent mind map – will be appreciated by visual learners as all information can be absorbed without turning pages.
