These notes go into detail on phobias, the behavioural approach to explaining phobias and the behavioural approach to treating phobias. It contains clearly labelled key AO1 and AO3 points that will help when writing longer 8, 12 and 16 markers. They are colour coded to make them easier to navigate and cover every point in the specification for this topic. This is part of the Psychopathology topic which is in Paper 1 of the AQA Spec. For 2023, this exam is on 19th may. good luck! p.s. I have made this the cheapest price possibly - it is literally not possible to sell a document for anything lower on this website - but message me and i might be able to give a larger discount on package deals!
