Although it varied from person to person, overall the concepts that seemed to trouble my students the most last year in unit 3 were:

The Reticular Activating System (RAS), Reticular formation, Thalamus, Imaging Techniques, Perceptual Anomalies, Working Memory, Kandel's work, Sperry's work, Loftus' work, and of course the dreaded Research Methods!

you can check out your school library for old checkpoints/A+ notes, sleep and states of consciousness was on the old study design too (althoug there have been a few minor changes), but they're still useful for practise.

#edit:

and i have a sample era if you want me to send it :)

It'll be good if someone did. I find that sources I read aren't stated clear enough and sometimes their examples don't even follow what they write.

I didn't do Units 1 & 2 of Psych and the teacher said he'd photocopy the research methods chapter from it for me but he forgot. :( Would I still be able do go ahead with this chapter in the 3 & 4 textbook and then read the 1 & 2 chapter later?

Print out the study design, and start making notes according to the dot oints. So simple. :) nothing else is needed at all.

Your 3 and 4 psychology textbook should have a chapter on Research methods which is based of the 1 and 2 book
