Sample items in the psychology set include questions on neurotransmitters linked to anxiety, components of the therapeutic relationship, identification of separation anxiety disorder, the Hawthorne effect, goals of logotherapy, and examples of token economy reinforcement.

    All 50 items are compulsory and scored under the same marking scheme, so guessing carries a measurable penalty. The CBT format means you will see and answer questions on screen within the single 60-minute slot for this subject test.
