IB Psychology SL case studies

IB Psychology SL is the Standard Level course in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme's Individuals and Societies group, offered through the IB's four-programme continuum for students aged 3 to 19. The IB describes its programmes as challenging, high quality international education, and psychology sits alongside other individuals and societies subjects in the DP curriculum. The course is built around three approaches to understanding behaviour: the biological approach, the cognitive approach, and the sociocultural approach. Candidates learn to explain behaviour through biological factors such as the brain, neurotransmitters, and genetics; through cognitive processes such as memory, thinking, and decision-making; and through social and cultural context such as groups, culture, and social identity. The IB Psychology SL case studies are 5 cases and about 3,940 words.
