AQA A Level Psychology Mind Map Basics

An AQA A Level psychology mind map sets out the specification in one diagram. The course is built around core studies and key theories across several topics, including social influence, memory, attachment, approaches and biopsychology. Each topic links to its own key studies, evaluation points and research methods. A mind map shows how these pieces relate, so you can see the whole course at a glance before you revise any single part.

Social influence: conformity, obedience and social change
Memory: models, types and factors affecting recall
Attachment: theories, research and cultural variations
Approaches: the perspectives and their core assumptions
Research methods: designs, sampling, ethics and statistics

Use the map to revise each branch, check what you can recall, and spot gaps before exams. You can also create a personalised map from your own notes with CogniGuide.
