Cognitive Approach Revision Guide: Reliability of Cognitive Processes Emotion and Cognition

This document provides a revision guide for questions about cognitive approaches. It outlines what should be included for each question: key terms/theories, 2-3 relevant studies, critical thinking, and how command terms impact the response. Sample questions are provided on topics like reconstructive memory, cognitive biases, emotion's influence on cognition, and research methods/ethics. For each, suggestions are given for what vocabulary, studies, and critical analysis should be incorporated based on whether the question is a short answer question or extended response question.
