After teaching IB Psych for over a decade, marking thousands of essays and short answers, writing hundreds of blogs and recording heaps of video tutorials about this topic, there&#8217;s still one mistake that students continue to make in their IB Psych exams. Read on to find out what it is and how <em>you\u00a0<\/em>can avoid that same mistake.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s start with a simple question: what&#8217;s the most important aspect of any study? Let&#8217;s say your brain could only remember one of the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Aim<\/li>\n<li>Methods<\/li>\n<li>Results<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What would you want your brain to remember?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m sure you said results, right? That&#8217;s correct. The most important part of a study are the results. So then let&#8217;s ask another question: why are the results important? SO WE CAN DO SOMETHING WITH THEM.<\/p>\n<p>Sorry for yelling, but I want to get this message across. You&#8217;re only using the results so you can\u00a0<strong>draw a conclusion.\u00a0<\/strong>And that&#8217;s the mistake that over 90% of students continue to make &#8211; they write about a study and end at the results. They don&#8217;t go further and say how that study supports their argument, or how that study links back to the topic they&#8217;re writing about. So actually, the most important part of a study is the conclusion. You could use the same study to draw multiple different conclusions &#8211; it depends on the point you&#8217;re making (which depends on the question you&#8217;re answering!)<\/p>\n<p>For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/2017\/10\/09\/key-study-cortisol-and-memory-buchanan-and-lovallo-2001\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buchanan and Lovallo&#8217;s<\/a> study on cortisol&#8217;s effects on memory could have a conclusion like this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8230;These results show that hormones like cortisol can have an effect on our behaviour. <\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That would be if the question were on hormones and behaviour. But if it were about the reliability of memory, the conclusion might be:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>&#8230;These results show that the reliability of our memory could be influenced by biological factors, such as hormones (e.g. cortisol). Cortisol could boost the reliability of some memories, especially those containing negative emotional information.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Same study, different conclusions. But the key is that there\u00a0<strong><em>is\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>a conclusion. That&#8217;s the biggest mistake students make: they forget to draw a conclusion.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Activating Schema: What have you learned in English class?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Maybe this habit persists because students are new in Psychology. So let&#8217;s think about a subject you&#8217;ve got lots more experience in writing essays: English. When you&#8217;re writing a literary analysis essay, what do you use as evidence? Think. Close your eyes. Say it&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Quotes and details from the novel, right? That&#8217;s your supporting evidence. I love teaching English* because you say whatever you want about a novel, <strong><em>if <\/em><\/strong>you can back up your claims with evidence from the text. Analysing a novel always felt like detective work for me &#8211; I would scour the book for the evidence that backed up what I knew the themes of the novel to be.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re doing in Psychology &#8211; the studies are the supporting evidence. But you\u00a0<em><strong>must\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>explain clearly what they are supporting. Ending a paragraph with the results of a study is like ending a paragraph with a quote from the novel or a description of the character. Where&#8217;s the analysis? Where&#8217;s the application?<\/p>\n<p>Think about History. What&#8217;s supporting evidence in History? Did imperialism cause World War I? Did nationalism cause WWII? What are the facts and details that support such an argument? You can&#8217;t just list off a bunch of facts, though, you have to explain\u00a0<em>how <\/em>they support your argument. Same goes in Psych.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>PEEL <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Keeping my English teacher hat on, what acronym have you learned for paragraph structure? PEEL? PETAL? SEX? PEE? SEE? Let&#8217;s stick with PEEL.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Point<\/li>\n<li>Explanation \/<\/li>\n<li>Example (EE in either order)<\/li>\n<li>Link<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s the\u00a0<strong>LINK\u00a0<\/strong>back to the topic or thesis that is missing when you end with the results and don&#8217;t explain them. A simple strategy is to remind yourself at the end of each paragraph, &#8220;have I linked back to my main point?&#8221; You can also do this in the final editing stages.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>EXAMPLE<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a common example of what Loftus and Palmer&#8217;s summary looks like&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>In Loftus and Palmer&#8217;s, 45 college participants were divided into five groups and watched a video of a traffic accident.

There&#8217;s also a second mistake , just as common as the first one. It&#8217;s corrected in the following example. Can you spot it?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>One study that demonstrates the effects of language on memory reliability was done by Loftus and Palmer. In this study, 45 college participants were divided into five groups and watched a video of a traffic accident. The participants were asked &#8220;&#8230;about how fast were the cars going when they \u2026 each other\u201d. The five groups were given five different verbs. I.e. one group was asked \u201chit\u201d, one was asked, smashed, etc. The results showed that the group asked smashed had the highest speed estimates, whereas the group asked contacted had the lowest. These results show how language (e.g. leading questions) can influence the reliability of memory because the different verbs caused differences in how the participants remembered the crash.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>But did they remember differently, or did they just write different answers? This was further studied in their second experiment&#8230;.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Did you notice the two mistakes the second answer corrected? Hopefully you see the basic one-sentence conclusion. This shows an examiner you understand the study. Secondly, the studies is introduced with a topic sentence, or a Point, to go back to our PEEL acronym. Most students just start writing about a study without first introducing the reason why they&#8217;re writing about it in a topic sentence.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Lesson Idea for Teachers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Download this word document.
