Distinction PSYU3352 (APPETITE) Comprehensive Lecture Notes

Description

Hi!! Thank you for checking out my notes! This unit was extremely interesting and my notes reflect that. I've condensed the information into a simple format with pictures - making it easy to study for assignments and exams. I've also taken the time to write down extra notes that helped me remember content. I received a distinction for this unit. Because I completed this unit in session 3, the content layout might be a bit different to how in-session will be, but all of the content will be the same.
