Welcome to the Psychological Studies Menu!

This is where you can access the summaries of the studies, you can find out a little bit about the authors, or you can find out about the theory that they are most famous for.  It can help you to understand the study better if you have that sort of knowledge lurking in the background, so to speak.  I have tried to slant the studies to the current O.C.R. syllabus, but if you do not follow that syllabus there will be something on the other pages that you might enjoy.
I have not got access to all of the studies yet, but when I do I will remove this sentence.
