Dr Ashton wanted to compare the effectiveness of different therapies in treating patients with schizophrenic symptoms. He assigned patients into three different groups. One group had drug therapy, one group had family therapy, and one group had both therapies.
State two conclusions that Dr Ashton could make from the results of his study.
Conclusion 1
Conclusion 2
AO3 (2 marks)
Credit one mark for each accurate conclusion.
For example;
- Family therapy is less successful at reducing the symptoms of schizophrenia
than drug therapy (1).
- Combined drug and family therapy is more successful than individual
therapies in reducing the symptoms of schizophrenia. (1)
- Drug therapy and combined therapies produce a more immediate reduction
in the symptoms of schizophrenia than family therapy. (1)
Conclusions must be directly relevant to results.
Look for other reasonable marking points.
