The new IB Psychology course began teaching in August 2025, with the new assessment model applying from May 2027.
The IB DP Psychology curriculum is organized around three interconnected pillars: Concepts, Content, and Contexts. These elements are integrated to support the study and understanding of human behaviour. Students investigate different contexts using relevant psychological content and concepts.
| Concepts | Content | Contexts |
|---|---|---|
| Bias | Biological approach | Health and well-being |
| Causality | Cognitive approach | Human development |
| Change | Sociocultural approach | Human relationships |
| Measurement | Research methodology | Learning and cognition |
| Perspective | ||

The Subtopic List includes all the topics covered in the IB Psychology SL subject guide.
The programme supports and prepares students for all IB Psychology SL assessment objectives, including demonstrating knowledge and understanding of psychological concepts, content, contexts, theories, models, and research methodology. Students receive targeted guidance for the Internal Assessment (research proposal) and external assessments, with practice in applying psychological knowledge to new situations, analysing and interpreting research data, and developing well-supported arguments.
