Higher Psychology Course
As well as books aimed specifically at the Higher, those aimed
as the AS level, AQA-A syllabus, have a good degree of relevant
material. There are also good teacher’s resource books and books
of research summaries available. In addition to books, bodies
such as SFEU and SQA publish very useful resources and support
materials.
