Hello, I'm Connor Whiteley, I am an 18-year-old who loves to write creatively, and I wrote my Brownsea trilogy when I was 14 years old after I went to Brownsea Island on a scout camp. At the camp, I started to think about how all the broken tiles and pottery got there and somehow a trilogy got created.Moreover, I love writing fantasy and sci-fi novels because you’re only limited by your imagination.In addition, I'm was an Explorer Scout and I love camping, sailing and other outdoor activities as well as cooking.Furthermore, I do quite a bit of charity work as well. For example: in early 2018 I was a part of a youth panel which was involved in creating a report with research to try and get government funding for organised youth groups and through this panel. I was invited to Prince Charles’ 70th birthday party and how some of us got in the royal photograph.Finally, I am going to university and I hope to get my doctorate in clinical psychology in a few years.

Introduction:
What is psychology?
We all must have heard of psychology at some point, right?
However, what actually is psychology? Because I think that we are all rather shocked about what psychology actually involves when we know the truth.
Especially, as we believe that psychology is what people on programmes like NCIS, CSI and Bones do. Profiling people and all that.
But I hate to disappoint you and break your image of psychology because as I found out- that version of psychology isn’t strictly true. Mainly because the majority of forensic psychologists’ work is in prisons rehabilitating inmates. At least that’s what my research into the job market has shown.
Anyway, all that psychology is, is the scientific study of behaviour and yes for anyone of you who are thinking ‘psychology a science you must be joking’ but as I will be showing you throughout this series is that there are a number of scientific methods for researching the complex and sometimes unpredictable phenomenon known as human behaviour.
Now in chapters, you will see a section under each case study that we’ll look at called Critical thinking. In this small section, we’ll look at a positive and a negative of the study. I will fully admit that some of the negatives or limitations of the study will seem a bit extreme or nit-picky. However, the purpose of this section is to help you start to evaluate and think about what makes a good study- and if there are any IB psychology teachers or students out there. I promise that for my exams I do write more professionally, and my critical thinking points are more fluent.
So please join me throughout this series as I begin to introduce you to the
