This is a compilation of notes and descriptions that can be easily written up into essays regarding the assumptions and approaches (cognitive, behaviouist, biological, positive, psychodynamic) that you must know about in unit 1 psychology of the WJEC specification. These essay notes also include evidence to backup the arguments outlined and examples.
This is a full topic resource based on the criminal behaviour topic of the WJEC A2 Psychology course. It includes a full essay of each explanation (inherited criminality, role of the amygdala, Eysenck’s criminal personality, cognitive factors, differential association theory and social learning theory/gender socialisation), an evaluation of each explanation, a descriptive essay of two treatments/therapies (anger management and restorative justice) and evaluations of the treatments/therapies.
All essays and evaluations include relevant research/evidence to back up claims and also counter arguments.
Why is this portfolio charged at £2?: because this is an entire unit of work of which evaluations, points and evidence have all been collated from many different sources, which takes time. As well as the fact that the quality of this work is to a much higher standard than previous psychology units from AS level that I have uploaded :)
