University psychology, paper by paper

Every paper on the syllabus, written out in full — the notes a student can actually learn from, not a summary that assumes you were in the lecture and following it.

Written by Asst. Prof. Geetika Rai, who teaches these papers. One teacher, one voice, across the whole degree.

Start with your paper, not your degree

This is the one thing worth understanding before you look for anything here, and it takes a moment.

A paper is a subject you sit an exam in. Social Psychology, Abnormal Psychology, Research Methodology. A programme is the degree you are enrolled on — BA Psychology, MA Psychology, BSc Psychology.

The same paper is taught on many programmes, often under a different code and in a different semester. So the notes are filed by paper, once. One paper, one address, one complete set of material — however many degrees teach it, and whichever one you happen to be on.

Which means there are two sensible ways in, and they are different questions:

The main programmes

The degrees built substantially from psychology papers. Each one opens to its own papers, in the semester they are usually taken.

Every programme, including those taught one or two psychology papers →

What comes with every chapter

Each chapter of each paper carries its own full set, built together — so the question paper tests what the notes actually taught, and the answer key shows where the marks are earned.

Student notes
The whole chapter, written so you can study from it without the lecture.
Revision notes
Compressed from the notes, for the night before.
Question paper
A practice bank in five sections, from multiple choice to very long answers.
Answer key
Model answers with the marks shown at the point they are earned.

The student notes are free to read in full, by anyone, with no account. The whole chapter, not a preview. A free account — approved by hand, usually within a day — opens the practice material, and printing and downloads in PDF or Word.

Three kinds of paper live here

Not everything on a psychology syllabus is a psychology paper, and pretending otherwise helps nobody looking for theirs.

Core psychology papers — 41
The subject proper, on psychology degrees. This is most of the site: browse them all →
Psychology in other programmes — 3
The same psychology, met from a law, business or design degree. If psychology is one paper on your course rather than your whole course, start here: psychology in other programmes →
Department papers — 4
Papers taught by other departments that appear on these syllabi. They are not psychology, and they are listed for completeness rather than written up: see the list →

No university is named here — deliberately

Syllabi differ between universities and change between years. So this site follows the topics that Indian psychology syllabi prescribe, rather than any one institution's list, and PsychologyGeet is not affiliated with any university.

That is not a disclaimer added at the end — it is a rule the material is built under, and a chapter is blocked from publishing if it carries anything that identifies an institution. The reasoning is on the editorial policy page.
