Instructions

The leaflet should be designed to both engage and inform the reader (a member of the public) about the use of and effectiveness of psychotherapy in improving mental health.

Imagine that you are a psychologist, you have been asked to produce an “evidence-based” leaflet which will inform your target audience About one of the topics above.Identify and research and evaluate the utility of psychological enquiry/evidence across a number of contexts and issues.

Identify the type of organisation (or organisations) for which this issue is of relevance. Organisations could be, for example, charities, governmental agencies (Department of Health) or international bodies  for example. You will develop an evidence-based leaflet on the issue as if designing this for the organisation(s).

This approach allows you to demonstrate writing for different audiences. Psychologists do not always write directly for an informed professional audience. The leaflet is aimed at informing the general public and so does not need to follow academic conventions. It must be written in an accessible manner avoiding technical jargon, where possible, or explaining this where it is not possible. It must be evidence based but can be written in a more engaging and informal style.
