Psychology is the study of the links between the brain and behaviour. Why do we do behave the way we do? Why do human beings love or hate? How do we find out about behaviour? What can we do with what we find out? Psychology tries to answer these questions, and A Level Psychology is both really useful, and really interesting! Interesting because who wouldn't want to know why eye witnesses usually make mistakes in identifying potential criminals, or how we understand what other people think? Useful because psychology can be applied in everyday life and in every aspect of the wider world. The aims of these qualifications are to encourage students to: Stimulate and develop their enjoyment of, and enthusiasm for, psychology. Develop and demonstrate skills, including practical and research skills. Develop essential knowledge and understanding of different areas of the subject and how they relate to each other. Appreciate how the subject develops and how its applications interact with changes in human attitudes, and with changes in society and technology. Recognise the value, use and misuse of the subject in society.
