Approaches Revision Activity (updated 2025 Specification)

This revision activity was created using the latest AQA A-Level Psychology specification (2025) although content and activities may be useful for other specifications.

This is an A3, double sided document with pricture prompts to act as cued recall.

How I use this:

• The pictures are taken from the PowerPoint slides / booklets that I use to teach each approach. Students are therefore already familiar with the dual coding of these pictures.
• At the end of the unit, students first blurt their annotation around each picture. Using a different colour, students then add any further information that they couldn’t remember.

Content covered:

• Behaviourism - operant & classical conditioning
• Social Learning Theory
• Cognitive approach
• Biological approach
• Psychodynamic approach
• Humanistic approach
