THE BRITISH PSYCHOLOGICAL SOCIETYPromoting excellence in psychology

Psychology is one of the most popular subjects to study because it has a big impact on all areas of life, from education and health, to the economy and crime. Psychologists apply scientific methodology to explain human behaviour. They formulate theories, test hypotheses through observation and experiment, and analyse their reports with statistical techniques that help them identify important findings. If you are interested in finding out why people behave the way they do or how the brain works then psychology could be for you. Whether you are at school, studying at university or have already started your career, the website’s resources will help you make the most of your potential.

THE PSYCHOLOGY FACULTYShort films of university lecturers speaking on topics taken from the A-level curriculum

The Psychology Faculty provides free, short films of university lecturers speaking on topics directly from the A-level curriculum. All our topics are provided by the major exam boards: AQA, Edexcel and OCR. In bringing the expertise of research scholars into the classroom, we stretch and challenge students, help them excel in their assessments, inspire deeper learning and smooth the transition from school to university. The site also helps students choose a university Psychology department that’s right for them and shows them what careers may follow their studies and what employers particularly value in Psychology graduates.
