What we cover
The Psychology Syllabus, Broken Down
Three core approaches, a research focus, and optional topics. Here's how Psychology is built, and where students most need support.
The current IB Psychology guide has been examined since May 2019. It is built on three approaches to understanding behaviour, biological, cognitive and sociocultural, supported by research methods and a choice of options such as health, developmental or human relationships. Students take SL or HL and complete an experimental internal assessment. The course rewards precise use of studies and sharp evaluation.
