Cambridge International AS & A Level Psychology encourages learners to think like a psychologist. The syllabus provides opportunities to explore key concepts and debates that underpin the subject of psychology and to develop the skills of interpretation, application, analysis and evaluation while studying a range of stimulating topics and real-world issues.
Our approach in Cambridge International AS & A Level Psychology encourages learners to be:
- confident, communicating psychological ideas and arguments to others, and exploring contemporary social issues with maturity and insight
- responsible, considering the ethical and moral implications of what they learn and being able to apply it responsibly
- reflective, about one’s own and others’ behaviour and mental processes
- innovative, developing informed views about real-world issues, and an ability to think psychologically to understand problems and respond to different situations
- engaged, debating issues and using research findings to understand the world around them.
