A.I. Explanation:

Question Focus: Choosing the department the participants come from

Correct Answer: history

Passage Reference: And shall we use other psychology students? Let's use people from a different department. What about history?

Why this is correct: When discussing who to study, the speaker suggests students from the history department. That is why the correct label on the diagram is history.

Common Mistake: Some students write literature because you hear it later, but the speaker immediately says they do not know any literature students and drops the idea. This is a sequence trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'What about history?' = Diagram: 'students from ___ department'

Tips: When you hear suggestions, always wait to see if the speaker confirms or rejects them.

Key Vocabulary:

• department = academic subject area

Question Focus: Method of collecting answers

Correct Answer: paper

Passage Reference: And we could ask them to answer questions online. But in this case, paper might be better

Why this is correct: The speaker first mentions answering questions online, but then changes their mind and says paper might be better. The final decision is the answer.

Common Mistake: Students choose online because they hear it first. But it is rejected. This is a sequence trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'paper might be better' = Diagram: 'questionnaire on ___'

Tips: Listen carefully for words like but or might be better because they often signal the real answer.

Key Vocabulary:

• method = way of doing something

Question Focus: Who the experiment involves

Correct Answer: humans

Passage Reference: Because our experiment involves humans, so there are special regulations.

Why this is correct: When talking about ethics, the speaker clearly says the experiment involves humans. That is why humans is correct. People is also accepted because it has the same meaning.

Common Mistake: Some students write students, but here the speaker is talking generally about ethical rules, not the group itself. This is a context shift trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'experiment involves humans' = Diagram: 'research on ___'

Tips: Ethics sections often use general words like humans, not specific groups.

Key Vocabulary:

• involves = includes

Question Focus: Ethical consideration to avoid

Correct Answer: stress

Passage Reference: another section on making sure they aren't put under any unnecessary stress.

Why this is correct: The speaker explains that ethical guidelines include making sure participants are not put under unnecessary stress. The key word needed in the diagram is stress.

Common Mistake: Students sometimes write risk, but risk is only mentioned as a section title, not the specific issue to avoid. This is a partial truth trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'unnecessary stress' = Diagram: 'avoid causing ___'

Tips: Listen for negative phrases like not put under to catch the exact problem mentioned.

Key Vocabulary:

• stress = mental pressure

Question Focus: How results are presented

Correct Answer: graph

Passage Reference: and then present our results visually in a graph.

Why this is correct: After analysing the data, the speaker says the results will be shown in a graph. That exact word is needed for the diagram.

Common Mistake: Some students write results or data, but those are what is shown, not how they are shown. This is a paraphrase trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'present our results visually in a graph' = Diagram: 'results shown in a ___'

Tips: When you hear presentation language, listen for the visual form like graph or table.

Key Vocabulary:

• visually = using pictures

Question Focus: Final stage of the research

Correct Answer: evaluate

Passage Reference: And the final thing is to think about our research and evaluate it.

Why this is correct: At the end, the speaker says they need to evaluate the research. The diagram is asking for this final action.

Common Mistake: Students sometimes write think, but that is too vague and not the academic step named. This is a partial truth trap.

Paraphrasing: Transcript: 'evaluate it' = Diagram: '___ the research'

Tips: For final stages, listen for academic verbs like evaluate, review, or assess.

Key Vocabulary:

• evaluate = judge how good something is

General Tips:

• Diagram questions follow the order of the recording. Use the previous answer to predict where the next one is coming.
• If the speaker suggests something and then changes their mind, the later idea is usually the answer.
• Always respect the word limit. One extra word makes the answer wrong.
• Copy the exact word you hear. Do not replace it with a synonym unless alternatives are clearly accepted.
• Listen carefully for signpost words like but, then, and the final thing.
