Revise AS Level Psychology is designed to give a clear framework of
the content of the course. It will help both the hard-working student
who has worked solidly throughout the course and the 'I should have
worked harder' student who urgently needs to gain sufficient knowledge
to pass the exam. It has been updated in line with the latest syllabus
specification and includes page references to AS Level Psychology, 4th
Edition by Michael W. Eysenck. Although it is designed to supplement
this book, it can be used alongside any AS-level psychology textbook.
This revision guide is written for a broad spectrum of students taking
the AQA-A AS psychology exam. It gives excellent guidance, not only on
how to pass the exam, but also on how to avoid the panic and pitfalls
that so many students face at exam time. It includes a number of helpful
features:
An outline of the format of the exam, following the most up-to-date
syllabus requirements, along with tips on how to perform well and advice
on raising grades
Essential topic information presented as flow charts and summary lists
Clear and full definitions of important terms and concepts, studies, and
theories
An explanation of how examiners assess students
Guidance throughout the text that encourages active engagement with the
material
Can be used with any AS-level psychology textbook, though there are
cross-references throughout to the appropriate pages in Eysenck's AS
Level Psychology
