I’ve created a comprehensive set of notes for every topic in A Level Psychology. They completely cover the specification, condensing all the key theories, studies, applications and evaluations into one booklet. I used these notes only alongside practice questions & achieved an A* in 2017.

Why they work:
> Organised according to, and covering entirely, the AQA specification.
> All AO1 and AO3 ready to answer exam questions
> Presented in a concise and memorable way

It covers every topic in this area of the spec:

• Classification of schizophrenia. Positive symptoms of schizophrenia, including hallucinations and
delusions. Negative symptoms of schizophrenia, including speech poverty and avolition. Reliability
and validity in diagnosis and classification of schizophrenia, including reference to co-morbidity,
culture and gender bias and symptom overlap.
• Biological explanations for schizophrenia: genetics, the dopamine hypothesis and neural correlates.
• Psychological explanations for schizophrenia: family dysfunction and cognitive explanations
including dysfunctional thought processing.
• Drug therapy: typical and atypical antipsychotics.
• Cognitive behaviour therapy and family therapy as used in the treatment of schizophrenia. Token
economies as used in the management of schizophrenia.
• The importance of an interactionist approach in explaining and treating schizophrenia; the diathesisstress model.
