This text has been written specifically for the revised SEG GCSE syllabus. It uses the methodology laid out in the syllabus in that core topics are thoroughly explored first. The student is then able to use this knowledge later to exploit the optional topics. This is a new approach integrating core and optional units. This syllabus can be entered at two levels, Foundation and Higher. This book provides the information that Higher tier candidates are required to know, but it is presented in a way that is accessible to Foundation tier candidates. The book is divided into five sections: ways of explaining human action; psychological methodology; social and antisocial relationships; individuality and identity; and cognitive and social competence. The text is designed for students taking SEG GCSE Psychology, Access courses, GNVQ Health and Social Care, and also nursing students, and students taking introductory psychology courses.
