    Study Notes

    External Assessment 2022 - Psychology Paper 1

    • This is a multiple-choice question book.
    • Students are instructed not to mark in this book.

    Section 1 - Questions 1-3

    • The questions relate to modified data from an investigation by Grant et al. (1998).
    • The data includes test conditions (short answer and multiple choice) with silent and noisy study conditions.
    • Details of mean scores and standard deviations are provided for each combination.

    Question 1

    • The question asks about the condition with the least variability.

    Question 2

    • The question asks for the conditions that resulted in the best student performance.

    Question 3

    • The question asks for a valid inference from the data.

    Question 4

    • This question identifies the brain region responsible for spatial abilities.
    • Options include: prefrontal cortex, temporal lobe, hippocampus, and amygdala.

    Question 5

    • Adolescents often perceive social media personalities as role models.
    • In this context, social media personalities are vicariously reinforced by the behaviours of adolescents, acting as agents of secondary socialisation.

    Question 6

    • Students in shared accommodation were surveyed regarding attraction to other students.
    • Initially, strongest attraction was to those who shared accommodation.
    • Later in the semester, attractions were based on compatible attitudes (similarity).

    Question 7

    • The key protein associated with Parkinson's disease is alpha-synuclein.

    Question 8

    • The question concerns unfriending behaviours on social media.
    • Most people communicated concerns to fix issues before ending the relationship.
    • This likely relates to the 'intrapsychic' stage of Duck's dissolution stages.

    Question 9

    • McMillan and Chavis (1986) identified four factors for community: membership, influence, investment and shared emotional connection.

    Question 10

    • Two theories about gender role development are presented.
    • Theory 1 sees children as passive observers.
    • Theory 2 describes children forming gender categories and acquiring related knowledge.
    • Matching these theories to gender role formation types is requested.

    Question 11

    • Assimilation is when minority groups participate fully in the dominant culture.

    Question 12

    • Discrimination is a preconceived opinion not based on reason or experience, an unconscious bias, negative thought, or behavioural manifestation of prejudice.

    Question 13

    • A two-dimensional figure interpreted as three-dimensional is an optical illusion.
    • Options include: Ponzo illusion, impossible figure, ambiguous figure, and Muller-Lyer illusion.

    Question 14

    • The question requires identification of an image representing association after conditioning.

    Question 15

    • An implication of Milgram's (1963) research is that social pressure can increase obedience.
    • Obedience increases if the command seems authoritative or if there's proximity to an authority figure.

    Question 16

    • Ross (1971) investigated participant responses in emergency situations.
    • Participants responded faster when children were present instead of adults.

    Question 17

    • Positive reinforcement is using a yellow/green light on a key causing pigeons to peck it more.
    • The same birds did not peck keys when red lights were presented. This is an example of discrimination.

    Question 18

    • Operant conditioning extinction occurs when reinforcement is discontinued or changes.

    Question 19

    • The question explores perceived preference for one group over another (e.g., young vs. old).
    • This can be related to explicit attitudes and group prejudice.

    Question 20

    • Classical conditioning (CC), operant conditioning (OC), and social learning theory (SLT) influence phobias.
    • Development and maintenance are analysed.
