The Self
Pearson EdexcelGCSE

Topic 8 sits at the heart of the Edexcel GCSE Psychology specification, asking a deceptively simple question: who are we, and how do we come to know ourselves? Candidates must master two contrasting explanations — Rogers' optimistic, humanistic model of self-actualisation and congruence versus Eysenck's deterministic, biologically-rooted PEN model — and apply Dweck's mindset theory and the Van Houtte and Jarvis (1995) study to real-world scenarios. Examiners consistently reward students who can distinguish precisely between self-concept and self-esteem, apply theories to novel scenarios with named quotation, and evaluate using the State-Explain-Consequence chain.
