Psychology is a fascinating science concerned with the study of the human mind and behaviour. The A level course content provides students with the opportunity to study a wide range of psychological approaches to explaining behaviour including, biological, cognitive, psychodynamic and social approaches. The course also includes the opportunity to consider the explanations of specific behaviours, such as aggression and psychopathologies including depression and OCD. Throughout the course a strong focus on developing an understanding of the nature of science and conducting psychological research is maintained. Studying Psychology will enable you to answer questions such as: What are the psychological responses to stress? Why is eyewitness testimony often wrong? What is depression? Why can jealousy cause aggression?
