Welcome to A Level Psychology. Over the next two years you’ll study a great variety of theories and research studies in the fascinating world of psychology. The beauty of psychology is that it is present in all aspects of your life, from walking through the supermarket and buying clothes to sports matches, the X Factor, teaching your dog new tricks, Brexit, Donald Trump and worshipping your favourite celebrity. Of course, there are also more obvious areas in which psychology plays a role, ranging from the treatment of psychological disorders such as depression to criminal profiling in the field of forensic psychology. You’ll find out more about these topics in the two years of your Psychology course, so there is a lot to look forward to.
