Five major perspectives form the foundation of psychology at GCSE and A-level.

• Biological approach – behaviour stems from genetics, brain chemistry, and neurotransmitters
• Cognitive approach – treats the mind as an information processor
• Behavioural approach – all behaviour is learned through conditioning and reinforcement
• Psychodynamic approach – explores hidden motivations and defence mechanisms
• Humanistic approach – rejects determinism in favour of choice and agency

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