edited October 2017 in Psychology
Hi friends as you all are aware through the thread http://discuss.forumias.com/discussion/28086/shunned-all-prep-n-going-for-gmat-n-then-startup/#Item_152
that I m moving out of this preparation but always scored well in psychology.Twice reached interview and psychology was the major contributor .I think few resources are lacking in psychology preparation namely ;
1.A single comprehensive book on paper 1
2.No solved question and answer compilation of mains papers of last year.
3.No comprehensive resource on statistics
4.No compilation of all case studies
I wish to provide handbooks on all above topics in next 6 to 10 months.
I want your feedback and if u wish u can add to d material lacking in market! Thanks a lot!!

    A few topics on which I don't have quality material are:
    grounded theory approach
    Research designs (ex-post facto and experimental); Application of statistical technique (t - test, two way ANOVA correlation, regression and factor analysis); Item response theory
    Recent trends part of thinking and attitude chapters
    Computer application in the psychological laboratory and psychological testing; Psychocybernetics,Simulation studies
    I would appreciate if u could guide me on sources for these topics!plus is there any site that u would recommend to follow for our optional?
    And the solved q/a compilation would be great help i think
    Thanks a ton for even thinking of investing ur time...it is a lot if u indeed wish to work on these handbooks

    Absolutely there are scattered resources and some resources are not available easily. Also I think understanding the syllabus is also important.
  • For statistics part of ur queries there is pdf of sternberg book n one bharti bhawan publication book on stats in psychology which u ll find at kumar book center.
    Then as the cognitive psychology appears to be main part of most of the questions nowadays esp in ppr1,u can refer to one book dedicated to cognitive psychology part .I ll suggest going through Atkinson n hilgard book.
    But rather than all this ..pls go through pathak sirs notes both classroom n printed ones.Then do some focussed research on all previous year pprs.ur score will improve .
    There are few sites I ll inbox u.
    I m seriously going to pursue that solved mains part ..rest orders will see as time permits.
