Psychology explores various explanations of human behaviour. You will explore the role of genetics and the role of the environment and culture in shaping behaviour. In the first year of Psychology you will study topics such as ‘What is abnormal?’, ‘How important are children’s early relationships?’, ‘Why do we change our beliefs or behaviours in response to real or imagined social pressure?’, ‘How does the memory work and how can we improve it?’ In the second year you will explore theories of relationships and why they break up, theories of perception and how we perceive the world and how and why people develop mental illness. Psychology is not about your personal opinions but rather about evaluating theories using a body of scientific evidence.
The minimum grades are 5 GCSEs at grade 4 and above.
