Learning styles are categories that explain how individuals process new information.

• Visual learners understand best through diagrams, charts, and written notes
• Auditory learners prefer talking through concepts aloud
• Kinaesthetic learners need hands-on activities and movement to learn
• Reading/writing learners prefer text-based input and output
• Social learners learn best through discussion and peer interaction
• Solitary learners need space to process information alone
• Logical learners favour reasoning, patterns, and systematic approaches

Understanding your learning style helps you choose study methods that work.

Five major perspectives form the foundation of psychology at most exam boards.

• Biological approach – behaviour stems from genetics, brain chemistry, and neurotransmitters
• Cognitive approach – studies how we interpret and store information
• Behavioural approach – all behaviour is learned through conditioning and reinforcement
• Psychodynamic approach – behaviour is shaped by unconscious conflicts and childhood experiences
• Humanistic approach – focuses on individual potential and subjective experience

Exam success often depends on evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of each perspective.
