  • Exercise 3: Planning investigations

    • Activity 1: Psychological context

    • Learners need to understand how different contexts can lead to different types of responses.

      Give learners two general psychology contexts which have significant differences. 

      The contexts in Worksheet 7: Psychological contexts can be used or replaced with other contexts. 

      Learners must identify the differences between each of the contexts.

      Use Worksheet 7: Psychological contexts answers to follow this activity with a discussion about the different contexts and how each requires different planned investigations.
