IB Psychology (First Assessment 2027) – Complete Topic Guide – Thinking and Learning & Cognitive Processes (Memory) | SL & HL

This comprehensive, ready-to-use topic guide covers all six units in the Learning and Cognition context – organised the way the course was actually taught, unit by unit, in teaching order. Designed for combined SL/HL classrooms across Year 2, Term 1, Weeks 1–6.

What’s Inside?
Full content companion, all 6 units – 7.1 (Conditioning & schema theory: classical/operant conditioning, reinforcement schedules, schema theory), 7.2 (Dual processing & cognitive biases: System 1/System 2, anchoring bias, HL Motivation extension), 7.3 (Social learning theory + synthesis: social learning theory applied to academic learning, three-mechanism synthesis), 8.1 (Biological & cognitive models of memory: hippocampus, long-term potentiation, multi-store model, reconstructive memory), 8.2 (Cultural & environmental influences: oral-tradition memory practices, imposed-etic bias, stress, sleep, HL Technology extension), 8.3 (Improving memory + HL Paper 3 consolidation: spaced repetition, retrieval practice, elaborative encoding, reducing cognitive load, full Paper 3 all four question types).

The compulsory class practical in full – Experiment (Unit 7.2): anchoring bias (Tversky and Kahneman paradigm). Ethics checklist, design rigour, minimum sample, IA link, and Paper 2 Section A practice question.

Both HL extension instances in full – Motivation (Unit 7.2) and Technology (Unit 8.2) – with classroom activities and SL parallel tasks. Complete content from the guide’s Table 6.2 and 6.3.

Paper 1, 2 & 3 exam technique – Section A/B/C practice questions from all six units. Section B unseen study evaluation prompts. Paper 3 HL-only source-based questions on motivated reasoning, strategy vs capacity, and a full 3+6+6+15 mark Paper 3 source set on spaced repetition.

This context’s IA milestone – No new IA checkpoint; instead, 8.3 carries the heaviest HL data-analysis/Paper 3 consolidation in the course (6h, not the standard 1.5h) – directly relevant to final IA polishing ahead of submission.

Full vocabulary audit – 22 glossary terms across the context.

Concept-spiral map – Links beyond this context: every unit’s forward and backward links to the rest of the course. Includes the fifth and final imposed-etic bias application (8.2), the fourth social learning theory application (7.3), and the heavy HL Paper 3 consolidation (8.3).
