Psychology of Learning and Development Important Questions in This Paper
These are the high-weight items worth prioritising in your revision, pulled directly from the verified February 2022 set.
- Growth and development — meaning, concept and the factors affecting it (Q2, Unit I)
- Kohlberg's theory of moral development (Q3, Unit I)
- Behaviouristic theory of learning, in detail (Q5, Unit II)
- Brainstorming method and Arieti's theory of creativity (Q6, Unit III)
- Intelligence and Gardner's theory of intelligence (Q7, Unit III)
- Personality — concept, nature and assessment techniques (Q9, Unit IV)
- Question 1 (short notes — concept of cognitive development, educational implications of motivation, factors affecting intelligence, concept of adjustment) is compulsory, so prioritise it first.
The session-specific differentiators here — which replace the April 2021 sitting's Tolman, Maslow, Guilford's SOI and Freud — are Gardner's theory of intelligence, the Eysenck and Allport personality theories, the brainstorming method, and cognitive development.

Syllabus Mapping — Units & Learning Outcomes
This is how the Psychology of Learning and Development M.Ed syllabus maps onto the paper, based on the themes the February 2022 questions actually test. Use it as a revision route, not as the official syllabus document.
| Unit | Themes (as reflected in this paper) |
|---|---|
| Unit I | Growth and development (meaning, factors); moral development (Kohlberg) |
| Unit II | Learning (process, characteristics, factors); behaviouristic theory of learning |
| Unit III | Creativity (brainstorming method, Arieti's theory); intelligence (Gardner's theory) |
| Unit IV | Personality (Eysenck and Allport theories, assessment techniques); adjustment |
In practice, this sitting leans on named theorists, so the safest route is to fix one anchor per Unit — Kohlberg, the behaviouristic theory, Gardner, and the personality theories — and add educational implications to each.
