This International A Level Psychology Course with Cambridge will help you develop your appreciation of the subject by exploring the ways in which psychology is conducted. As part of your studies, you also review important research; this provides an insight into the ways in which psychology has been applied, thereby leading to a better understanding of key approaches, research methods and issues and debates.
The syllabus reflects four core areas of psychology, namely biological, cognitive, learning and social; it also relates psychology to abnormality, consumer behaviour, health and organisations.
Psychology will complement just about any other subject. Students who study psychology often also study biology, sociology, business, or English. Also students, who want a career in any of the caring services, or in marketing or human resources, will find an understanding of psychology useful.
Students in the past have progressed onto the following degree courses:-
• Marketing • Business development • Accountancy
• Human resources • Forensic psychology

The AS Level (year 1) modules consists of approaches, issues and debates and research methodology that underpin the study of psychology.
These fundamental aspects of psychology are taught and assessed through 12 compulsory core studies (detailed below). The approaches, issues and debates and research methodology are considered for each study.
For IA2 (year 2), learners will build on their knowledge from IAS. Specialist options are introduced at A Level. Learners study how psychology is applied in two of the following specialist areas:
Clinical psychology is the study of a range of mental and behavioural disorders/conditions and the potential explanations and available treatments for them.
There are many competing explanations and treatments for the conditions/disorders.
Learners will be expected to understand the strengths and weaknesses of these explanations and treatments and compare them with each other.
Consumer Psychology is the study of human behaviour in relation to the retail environment.
For this option learners look at different areas of consumer environments (shops, restaurants and online) and consider how psychology can affect consumer patterns and decision-making.
Learners will also explore the reaction and preferences of consumers to the packaging of products, the marketing of products and the advertising of products.
Health psychologists look at the factors that influence behaviours in both health and community settings.
For this option, learners will look at psychological factors that influence health, and will also examine the management and assessment of health-related behaviours linked to stress, pain and non-adherence to medical advice.
Students will be required to arrange and pay for their examinations at CIE approved centre. We can provide an extensive list of these centres for you.
