Hi sir, could we be asked a 16 marker on disruption to circadian rhythms like jet lag and shift work? I have been taught it but it doesnt explicitly say on the spec

[@alexandra129]

nah - cld get on on circadian rhythms or effect of endogenous pacemakers on circadian rhythms

[@alexandra129]

you cld include that in ur A01

[@GalbraithDoesPsych]

As Alexandra says those could be options.
Jet lag and shift lag are from the old specification. You could use them, but as you say they aren't on the spec.

Hello sir, is 'discuss' the same as 'outline and evaluate' or does it require something different?

[@GalbraithDoesPsych]

Hello!
I don't tend to worry about it too much as it's still 6 AO1 and 10 AO3 marks, and in examiner reports you'll often see both words used. Personally, I feel like discuss needs a bit more of a two-sided approach, possibly with some discussion of any implications, but like I said I don't worry too much. I think it's about the skills you're showing (AO1 and AO3).

Hi sir, for 8 marker for an evaluate question is it alright to write 2 limitations? Or do I need to do one strength and one weakness? It was a comparison of approaches question for today’s exam and I wrote 2 weaknesses but I’m unsure.

[@GalbraithDoesPsych]

Hello, if it's just evaluate I'd try to have a bit of balance if possible but two limitations is okay!
I think you'll be alright so long as you did actually do some comparison within that :)
