🧠 3 Final Revision Tips for Psychology Paper 1

✅ 1. Know Your Case Studies – With Names & Numbers
Psychology is all about evidence. For every topic, make sure you’ve memorised:

  • The psychologist’s name (e.g. Milgram, Ainsworth, Zimbardo)

  • Key details: what they did, what they found

  • Numbers if relevant (e.g. 65% obedience rate in Milgram’s baseline)

📊 2. Evaluate With Precision
Avoid vague points like “it’s not generalisable.”
Say: “The study lacks population validity as it used a small, ethnocentric sample of American men.”

Examiner gold = depth, not just point scoring.

🧩 3. Apply Your Knowledge
In scenario questions, always highlight key terms from the stimulus and link them back to theory.

Tip: Underline the context in the question first, then bullet what theories or studies you’ll bring in before you write.
