📚 Year 7 WJEC Psychology: Christmas Break Intensive Revision Plan | 7年级 WJEC 心理学：寒假强化复习计划
Welcome to your structured revision planner for the Christmas holidays. This guide is built specifically around the Year 7 WJEC Psychology curriculum and is designed to help you revisit key topics, strengthen your understanding of core concepts, and build confidence ahead of your next assessments. Over four weeks, you will review the foundations of psychology, memory, social psychology, and attachment through a balanced mix of reading, summarising, and self-testing activities. Follow the daily tasks, keep a dedicated revision journal, and you will return to school feeling fully prepared.
欢迎使用这份为圣诞假期设计的结构化复习计划。本指南专门围绕7年级 WJEC 心理学课程编写，旨在帮助你重温关键主题、加深对核心概念的理解，并为下一次评估树立信心。在四周的时间里，你将以阅读、总结和自测相结合的方式复习心理学基础、记忆、社会心理学和依恋等内容。按照每日任务进行，并准备一本专门的复习日志，新学期返校时你一定会胸有成竹。
1. How to Use This Plan | 如何使用本计划
This revision plan is divided into four weeks, each with a specific theme. Week 1 covers the nature of psychology and research methods. Week 2 focuses on memory. Week 3 explores social influence and attachment. Week 4 is reserved for consolidation, practice questions, and self-assessment. Every day you are asked to complete between 30 and 45 minutes of active revision. Start by creating a quiet study space, assembling your class notes, textbook, coloured pens, and a dedicated notebook. At the end of each session, tick off the completed activity to track your progress.
本复习计划分为四周，每周一个主题。第一周学习心理学的性质和研究方法。第二周聚焦于记忆。第三周探讨社会影响与依恋。第四周用来巩固知识、做练习题目和自我评估。每天你需要完成30到45分钟的主动复习。首先准备一个安静的学习空间，备好课堂笔记、教科书、彩色笔和一本专用笔记本。每次结束后，把完成的任务打上勾，记录自己的进度。
Active revision means you are not simply reading your notes. You should be summarising, drawing diagrams, making flashcards, answering short questions, and teaching ideas to a family member. The plan includes two rest days each week, but you can use these lighter days to watch a short educational video related to the week’s topic if you wish. Remember, consistency is more important than intensity. Enjoy your holiday while staying on track.
主动复习意味着你不是只读笔记，而是要进行总结、画图、制作闪卡、回答短问题以及向家人讲解观点。计划每周安排两天休息，但如果你愿意，可以在这些轻松的日子里看一段与该周主题相关的教育短片。记住，持之以恒比高强度更重要。在享受假期的同时，保持学习节奏。
2. Week 1 Focus: The Science of Mind and Behaviour | 第一周重点：思维与行为的科学
Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behaviour. In Year 7 WJEC, you learn that psychologists aim to describe, explain, predict, and sometimes change behaviour. The first week of revision revisits these goals and introduces the main research methods you need to know: experiments, observations, questionnaires, and case studies. You will also review the concepts of variables (independent and dependent), hypotheses, and ethical considerations. Understanding how psychologists gather evidence is crucial because every topic you study later depends on research findings.
心理学是对思维与行为的科学研究。在7年级 WJEC 课程中，你会学到心理学家的目标是描述、解释、预测，有时是改变行为。第一周的复习会再次探讨这些目标，并介绍你需要掌握的主要研究方法：实验法、观察法、问卷法和个案研究法。你还会复习变量（自变量和因变量）、假设和伦理考量等概念。理解心理学家如何收集证据至关重要，因为你后面学习的每一个主题都依赖研究结果。
By the end of this week, you should be able to define psychology, distinguish between an aim and a hypothesis, identify independent and dependent variables in simple scenarios, and list the strengths and weaknesses of different research methods. You will also refresh your knowledge of ethical issues such as informed consent, confidentiality, and the right to withdraw. If your teacher has provided any past paper questions on research methods, try to answer them under timed conditions at the weekend.
本周结束时，你应该能够给心理学下定义，区分研究目的和假设，在简单情境中识别自变量和因变量，并列出不同研究方法的优缺点。你还需要重温知情同意、保密和退出权利等伦理问题。如果老师提供过关于研究方法的历史考题，请试着在周末限时完成它们。
3. Week 1 Day-by-Day Tasks | 第一周每日任务
Day 1: Read your notes or textbook pages on ‘What is Psychology?’ and write a paragraph that includes the four goals of psychology. Then, on a fresh page, draw a mind map linking each goal to a real-life example, such as a teacher using praise (behaviour change) or a sports psychologist helping an athlete deal with pressure (explaining behaviour).
第1天：阅读笔记或教科书上关于“什么是心理学？”的内容，写一段包括心理学四个目标的文字。然后，另起一页画出思维导图，将每个目标与一个现实生活中的例子连接起来，比如老师用表扬改变行为，或者运动心理学家帮助运动员应对压力（解释行为）。
Day 2: Focus on experiments. Write a definition of independent variable (IV) and dependent variable (DV) in your own words. Next, create three simple experiment ideas and label the IV and DV in each. For example, ‘Does listening to music affect concentration?’ – IV: music or no music, DV: score on a concentration test.
第2天：重点学习实验。用自己的话写出自变量（IV）和因变量（DV）的定义。接着，想出三个简单的实验思路，并分别标出自变量和因变量。例如，“听音乐会影响注意力吗？”——自变量：有无音乐，因变量：注意力测验得分。
Day 3: Move on to other methods. Make a table with four columns: Method, Brief Description, Strengths, Weaknesses. Fill it in for observation, questionnaire, and case study, using your class materials. Try to include at least two strengths and two weaknesses for each method.
第3天：转向其他方法。制作一张包含四列的表格：方法、简要描述、优点、缺点。利用课堂材料填写观察法、问卷法和个案研究法的内容。每种方法至少列出两个优点和两个缺点。
Day 4: Ethics in psychology. Brainstorm the six key ethical principles: informed consent, deception, right to withdraw, protection from harm, confidentiality, and debriefing. Write a short paragraph explaining why each one matters. Afterwards, read a simplified summary of a famous study, such as Milgram’s obedience experiment, and identify which ethical principles would be a concern today.
第4天：心理学中的伦理。头脑风暴六条关键的伦理原则：知情同意、欺骗、退出权、免受伤害、保密和事后解释。写一段简短的解释，说明每条原则的重要性。然后，阅读一项著名研究（如米尔格拉姆的服从实验）的简化总结，并指出今天看来会引起伦理担忧的原则。
Day 5: Review and self-test. Go back through your Week 1 notes and choose the ten most important terms (e.g., psychology, aim, hypothesis, IV, DV, control, ethics). Write a definition for each without looking at your materials. Check your answers and highlight any you got wrong to revisit next week.
第5天：复习与自测。回顾第一周的笔记，选出十个最重要的术语（如心理学、目的、假设、IV、DV、控制、伦理）。在不看资料的情况下写出每个术语的定义。核对答案，把答错的内容高亮，方便下周再看。
Day 6–7: Rest days with an optional activity. Watch a short documentary clip about psychology as a science, or create five flashcards with research methods scenarios on the front and the method plus a justification on the back.
第6–7天：休息日及可选活动。观看一段关于心理学作为科学的纪录短片，或者制作五张闪卡，正面写研究方法情境，背面写方法名称及理由。
4. Week 2 Focus: Memory and Learning | 第二周重点：记忆与学习
Memory is a central topic in Year 7 WJEC Psychology. You will revisit the multi-store model of memory (MSM), which divides memory into sensory register, short-term memory (STM), and long-term memory (LTM). Key processes include encoding, storage, and retrieval. You should be able to describe the capacity, duration, and coding of each store, and explain how information moves from one store to another through attention and rehearsal.
记忆是7年级 WJEC 心理学的核心主题。你将复习将记忆划分为感觉登记器、短时记忆（STM）和长时记忆（LTM）的多贮存模型（MSM）。关键过程包括编码、存储和提取。你需要能够描述每个存储库的容量、持续时间和编码方式，并解释信息如何通过注意和复述从一个存储库转移到另一个存储库。
The second part of the week looks at reasons for forgetting, including decay, displacement, and retrieval failure. You will also learn practical strategies to improve your own revision, such as chunking, elaborative rehearsal, and the spacing effect. Linking these concepts to your study habits is a powerful way to remember them for the exam.
本周的第二部分探讨遗忘的原因，包括衰退、替代和提取失败。你还要学习提高自己复习效率的实用策略，比如组块化、精细复述和间隔效应。把这些概念和你的学习习惯联系起来，是一种能让你在考试中牢牢记住它们的有效方法。
5. Week 2 Day-by-Day Tasks | 第二周每日任务
Day 8: Recreate the multi-store model from memory on a blank sheet. Draw three boxes labelled Sensory Register, STM, and LTM. Add arrows and label them with the processes (attention, rehearsal, retrieval). Underneath, write one bullet point each for capacity, duration, and coding for every store.
第8天：在一张白纸上凭记忆再现多贮存模型。画出三个方框，分别标为感觉登记器、STM和LTM。添上箭头并标出过程（注意、复述、提取）。在下方，为每个存储库的容量、持续时间和编码各写一个要点。
Day 9: Test your understanding of STM and LTM differences. Find three examples from everyday life that illustrate the limited capacity of STM (e.g., difficulty remembering a long phone number) and three examples that show the vast capacity of LTM (e.g., recalling childhood events). Write them down as mini case studies.
第9天：检测你对 STM 和 LTM 差异的理解。找出三个体现 STM 容量有限的生活例子（如难以记住长串电话号码），和三个体现 LTM 容量巨大的例子（如回忆起童年往事）。把它们作为小案例写下来。
Day 10: Study forgetting. Define decay, displacement, and retrieval failure in your own words. Then, match each term to a scenario: ‘You cannot remember a new phone number because you just learned another one.’ (displacement), ‘You cannot recall a name until you see the person’s face.’ (retrieval failure), ‘You forgot a fact you learned years ago and never used.’ (decay).
第10天：学习遗忘。用自己的话给衰退、替代和提取失败下定义。然后，把每个术语与一个场景配对：“你记不住一个新电话号码，因为你刚记了另一个号。”（替代），“没见到一个人的脸就想不起名字。”（提取失败），“一个多年前学的但从未用过的事实被你忘记了。”（衰退）。
Day 11: Memory improvement techniques. Create a colourful poster explaining chunking, elaborative rehearsal, and the spacing effect. Use drawings and examples. Display it near your study area. After that, apply chunking to a list of 15 random words and see how many you can recall after five minutes.
第11天：记忆改善技巧。制作一张色彩丰富的海报，解释组块化、精细复述和间隔效应。使用插图和例子。把它张贴在学习区域附近。之后，将组块化应用到一个有15个随机单词的列表上，看看五分钟后你能回忆起多少个。
Day 12: Active recall. Without looking at your notes, write everything you remember about the multi-store model and forgetting on a single page. Next, open your textbook and add any missing information in a different colour. This highlights gaps for further revision.
第12天：主动回忆。不看笔记，在一页纸上写下你记得的关于多贮存模型和遗忘的一切内容。然后，打开教科书，用不同颜色的笔补上遗漏的信息。这能凸显需要进一步复习的薄弱环节。
Day 13–14: Rest and light review. Briefly skim the Week 2 key terms and try explaining the multi-store model to a family member using the poster you made. Rest well to consolidate your learning.
第13–14天：休息与轻松回顾。快速浏览第二周的关键术语，试着用你做的海报向家人解释多贮存模型。好好休息，巩固所学。
6. Week 3 Focus: Social Psychology and Attachment | 第三周重点：社会心理学与依恋
This week shifts your attention to how we are influenced by other people and how early relationships shape our development. In Year 7 WJEC, you cover topics such as conformity, obedience, and deindividuation, as well as attachment theory. You need to understand the difference between conformity (changing behaviour or beliefs to fit in with a group) and obedience (following direct orders from an authority figure). Classic studies, including Asch’s line experiment, are often used to illustrate these concepts.
本周将你的注意力转向我们如何受他人影响，以及早期关系如何塑造我们的发展。在7年级 WJEC 课程中，你会学习从众、服从、去个性化以及依恋理论等主题。你需要理解从众（改变行为或信念以适应群体）与服从（听从权威人物的直接命令）之间的区别。包括阿希线段实验在内的经典研究常被用来阐明这些概念。
You will also revisit Bowlby’s theory of attachment, which emphasises that infants form an emotional bond with a primary caregiver that acts as a secure base for exploring the world. You should be familiar with Ainsworth’s ‘Strange Situation’ and the resulting attachment styles: secure, insecure-avoidant, and insecure-resistant. A key exam skill is being able to describe observational research and relate it to real-life applications like nursery care and child development.
你还要重温鲍尔比的依恋理论，该理论强调婴儿与主要照顾者之间会形成情感纽带，并以此为安全基地探索世界。你应熟悉安斯沃思的“陌生人情境”及由此得出的依恋类型：安全型、不安全-回避型和不安全-反抗型。一项关键的考试技能是能够描述观察研究，并将其与幼儿园护理和儿童发展等现实应用联系起来。
7. Week 3 Day-by-Day Tasks | 第三周每日任务
Day 15: Start with conformity. Write definitions for conformity, informational social influence, and normative social influence. Then, describe Asch’s line study in four sentences: aim, method, results, and conclusion. If possible, simulate a mini version with family members to see how group pressure feels.
第15天：从从众开始。写下从众、信息性社会影响和规范性社会影响的定义。然后用四个句子描述阿希线段实验：目的、方法、结果和结论。如果可能，请家人帮忙模拟一个小型版本，亲身感受团体压力。
Day 16: Move to obedience. Define obedience and note the key difference from conformity. Summarise a simplified version of Milgram’s obedience study, focusing on why people obeyed the authority figure. Create a Venn diagram comparing conformity and obedience, listing shared and unique features.
第16天：转向服从。定义服从并指出它与从众的关键区别。总结一项简化版的米尔格拉姆服从研究，重点关注人们为什么服从权威人物。制作一幅韦恩图，比较从众和服从，列出它们的共同点和独特之处。
Day 17: Deindividuation and crowd behaviour. Research the definition of deindividuation and link it to Zimbardo’s guard study or a real-life example, such as behaviour at a football match. Write a paragraph explaining how anonymity can change a person’s behaviour.
第17天：去个性化与群体行为。查找去个性化的定义，并将其与津巴多的警卫研究或现实生活中的例子（如足球赛中的行为）联系起来。写一段话解释匿名性如何改变人的行为。
Day 18: Attachment basics. Outline Bowlby’s theory, including the concepts of monotropy, the critical period, and the internal working model. Draw a simple diagram showing the caregiver as a secure base from which a toddler explores. Then, list Ainsworth’s three attachment types and describe how a child would behave in the Strange Situation for each.
第18天：依恋基础。概述鲍尔比的理论，包括单趋性、关键期和内部工作模式等概念。画一幅简图，显示照顾者作为蹒跚学步的孩子探索世界的安全基地。接着列出安斯沃思的三种依恋类型，并描述每种类型的孩子在陌生人情境中会如何表现。
Day 19: Cross-cultural attachment. Read about Ainsworth’s work in different countries. Write three bullet points about how attachment styles vary across cultures and what this tells us about the role of upbringing. Create a short glossary for the week’s social and attachment terms.
第19天：跨文化依恋。阅读安斯沃思在不同国家所做的工作。写出三个要点，说明依恋类型如何因文化而异，以及这告诉我们教养方式的作用。为本週的社会和依恋术语制作一份简短词汇表。
Day 20–21: Rest and recap. Choose one study from this week and create a one-page revision poster. Hang it next to your Week 1 and Week 2 posters. Also, discuss attachment styles with a parent or carer and ask about your own early childhood if you wish, linking theory to real life.
第20–21天：休息与回顾。从本周选择一项研究，制作一张单页复习海报。把它挂在第一周和第二周海报旁边。此外，与父母或照顾者讨论依恋类型，如果你愿意，可以谈谈自己幼年的情况，将理论与现实生活联系起来。
8. Final Week: Consolidation and Self-Testing | 最后一周：巩固与自我测验
The fourth week is designed to tie everything together. You will spend the first two days creating a master mind map that connects research methods, memory, social influence, and attachment. The middle days are for practising exam-style questions, while the last days focus on self-assessment and calm reflection. This structure helps you see how different topics in psychology relate to one another and reinforces your long-term memory.
第四周旨在把所有内容串联起来。前四天你要绘制一幅连接研究方法、记忆、社会影响和依恋的总思维导图。中间几天用来练习考试风格的题目，最后几天则专注自我评估和冷静反思。这样的结构能帮助你看清心理学不同主题之间的关联，并巩固长时记忆。
During self-testing, use the revision journal you have kept throughout the holiday. Look back at your Week 1 research methods table, your memory model diagrams, and your attachment notes. Identify at least three areas where you feel less confident, and spend 20 extra minutes revisiting each one. The final day should be a confidence booster, reminding yourself how much you have achieved over the Christmas break.
在自测过程中，翻阅你整个假期一直使用的复习日志。回顾第一周的研究方法表格、记忆模型图以及依恋笔记。找出至少三个你感觉不太有把握的领域，针对每个领域再花20分钟巩固。最后一天应是树立信心的一天，提醒自己在圣诞假期里已经取得了多么大的进步。
9. Key Terminology to Master | 需要掌握的关键术语
Here are the essential terms you should be able to define and use accurately by the end of the revision plan. Test yourself by covering the right-hand definitions and giving your own explanation before checking.

10. Final Tips and Motivation | 最后建议与激励
As you complete this intensive revision plan, remember that understanding the ‘why’ behind concepts is far more powerful than memorising words. Try to explain each idea in your own language and make real-world links. Psychology is all around you – in friendships, in school achievement, and in the way you solve problems. The more you engage with the subject personally, the easier it becomes to recall the material under exam conditions.
当你完成这份强化复习计划时，请记住，理解概念背后的“为什么”远比死记硬背词汇有效。试着用自己的话解释每一个观点，并建立与现实世界的关联。心理学无处不在——存在于友谊中、学业成就中，以及你解决问题的方式中。你与这门学科的个人联系越紧密，在考试条件下回忆知识就越容易。
Stay positive, get plenty of sleep, and use your rest days to recharge fully. Well done for committing to your learning during the holiday. Return to school with the quiet confidence that you have built a solid foundation in Year 7 WJEC Psychology, ready to tackle new topics and succeed in your next assessment.
保持积极心态，保证充足睡眠，并利用休息日充分充电。感谢你在假期里坚持学习。带着这份你已经在7年级 WJEC 心理学中奠定坚实基础的沉稳自信返校，准备好迎接新课题，并在下一次评估中取得成功。
