The student effectively outlines the topic of their study at the beginning of the essay, making its aim clear to the reader. They establish a clear context of the study by describing the relevant background information, purpose, and focus of the essay. Additionally, the research question is directly relevant to Psychology and does not include topics, terms, or concepts from other subjects. However, the essay does not present the research question at the beginning, and the scope of the research question is considered too broad for the available resources and word limit. The student also needs to explain why the topic is worthy of investigation based on the presented academic context and the current scope of knowledge in the area. Moreover, they should ensure that the essay’s focus is maintained throughout its entire length and avoid unnecessary discussions.
