Psychology Bachelor Year 1

What can I find on this page?
On this page, you can find a summary for all the study materials you need in the first year of the Psychology bachelor's programme at the University of Amsterdam. There is a link for all the separate courses. The courses have been organized into so-called bundles, which contain all the separate literature (book chapters & articles) to make for an easy overview. As all the study materials have been created by an actual student (me!) who has followed the same courses you are following right now, you know the material is up-to-date and focused on you, as a student.

The following courses are included:

  • Introduction to Psychology
  • Research Methods & Statistics
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Social Psychology
  • Work & Organizational Psychology
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Test Theory & Practice
  • Propadeutic thesis example

Why should I use this page?
You should use this page because it contains quality summaries for all the courses in the first year of the Bachelor's Progamme. I have used the summaries to study for my own exams and have passed all exams with at least an 8 (GPA 8.44). Therefore, you know the quality is good! Besides that, you can ask any question you might have about the study materials and I will try to answer them as soon as possible! Last, but certainly not least, the summaries are student-priced; only 5 euros to gain access for a whole year!

Additional information:
If you have any remaining questions after reading this (or want to comment on something), you are also always welcome to send me an e-mail. This can also be about study-related matters, providing you are a JoHo member. My e-mail is jespernicolai2000@gmail.com.

Research Methods & Statistics – Bayesian statistics summary (UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM)

Research Methods & Statistics – Bayesian statistics summary (UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM)

Probability refers to the proportion of occurrence when a particular experiment is repeated infinitely often under different circumstances. It is a long-term relative frequency, does not apply to unique events and is dependent on the reference category.

Subjective probability refers to the subjective degree of conviction in a hypothesis. Objective probability refers to the long-term relative frequency and is the same probability used in classical statistics.

The p-value is the probability of finding a test statistic at least as extreme as the one observed, given that the null hypothesis is true. An X% confidence interval for a parameter is an interval that in repeated use has an X% chance to capture the true value of the parameter. The p-values are only concerned about the null hypothesis, although it is not possible to make statements about the probability of a hypothesis in classical statistics.
