Exam Thoughts & Review

[spikey]

Ohhh i wrote the teacher thing as well. That the teacher was told to continue teaching as normal, but this could have involved previously positively reinforcing the students if that was what she normally did but who knows.

Also what were your answers for gambling?

Talk about your detailed studies in the detailed studies thread...

Did everyone find it weird how they asked for two DSM criticisms in MCQ? q45 and somewhere in the middle

[Zafaraaaa]

Isn't PET scan correct, along with fMRI?

I was tossing up between MRI (structural) and PET (functional) but then i just threw in fMRI 'cus it does both...

[REBORN]

I think PET will be accepted

You think it'll be low? A lot of people in my school were like it's gonna be so high haha :/

how was the appraisal question with the two girls worth 4 marks?

I just said that for one it was appraised as stressful and a threat and the other that it wasn't stressful and appraised as a challenge. for the MC what did you guys do for the mum who felt bad because her daughter had to work more to support the family? I said it was a social stressor


and for the question with the girl who was struggling to balance her school work with her part-time job, was the homework a social stressor? or was it a environmental or cultural or something?

The major depression one sucked with the limitations and strengths of cbt. lol I said that it helps eliminate behavioural inactivation symptoms and increase mood and i said as a limitation that it was time consuming. lol


oh and for the rat question, in order for the experiment to test the learning or whatever di he have to give a reward or let the rats become familiar with the maze. I did the latter option =/

some people in my class were like "it was sooo easy!!"

[harlequinphoenix]

Oh! I've been meaning to ask - will Psych be scaled up this year? because its usually scaled down by like 1, but from the looks of the new course it's got MORE than previous years, and is HARDER. Or does subject scaling never change despite some getting harder?

I mentioned "rewarded" for that multiple choice with the rats, and for the girl struggling to balance school work+job, I wrote homework was an "environmental stressor" - I don't know why, but social didn't seem right to me? (It very well could be correct though). Btw, I reckon you'd get the marks for the CBT question

I REMEMBER THIS QUESTION! It was like... HER HOMEWORK IS A:

cultural stressor
social stressor
psychological stressor
environmental stressor

LOL HOW IS IT ANY OF THE ABOVE?

I put social 'cus it sounds right..

[REBORN]

fml put social.

it was latent learning and 'reward'
