Cognitive Processes

The cognitive processes (CP) outcomes look at how particular cognitive systems are investigated, and the effects they have on behaviour.

There are six cognitive processes outcomes:

  • CP1: Evaluate schema theory with reference to research studies.
  • CP2: Evaluate two models or theories of one cognitive process with reference to research studies.
  • CP3: Discuss how biological factors may affect one cognitive process.
  • CP4: Discuss how social or cultural factors affect one cognitive process.
  • CP5: With reference to relevant research studies, to what extent is one cognitive process reliable?
  • CP6: Discuss the use of technology in investigating cognitive processes.


Note that any example responses are not necessarily worth full marks, but exist simply to provide an idea of how an example looks.
