In addition to the following criteria, the “Assessment Guidelines of the Psychology Faculty” must be taken into account, available at https://www.uab.cat/doc/DOC_PautesAvaluacio_2024_2025

Individual assessment activities: (Ev1, Ev2)

• There will be two multiple-choice partial examinations (worth 25% of final grade each)
• Exams with 30 questions, four choices, only one correct and penalty of 1/3. Questions will not be only about descriptions or identification. They will include reflections, associations of different concepts and applications of main topics worked in all sessions to date.

Individual assessment activities: (Ev3, Ev4)

• There will be two open-answer exams with 5 questions. A short answer (not essay-answer) will be required (worth 20% of final grade each one).
• The questions will be based on brief descriptions of applied cases, which will be similar to those worked in the workshops (PA groups 1/2).  There will be no penalties, but incorrect answers, answers without the use of an appropriate technical language, and/or long answers written outside the established margins, will be scored with 0 points.

Continuous assessment of flipped classrooms: (Ev5)

• There will be 5 multiple choice questions in each flipped classroom session, four choices, only one correct, related to contents of videos and compulsory readings. The group of 50 questions (5 x 10 sessions) will worth 10% of final grade.

Group assessment activity: (Ev6)

EV5: Optional group project. This will be assessed according to a rubric that will be published at the beginning of the course (worth 10% of final grade). Grade of EV6 only will be added to the Final Grade if grade of EV6 ≥4.95 and (EV1+EV2+EV3+EV4+EV5) is ≥4.95. It will not be possible to hand it in it outside the established date.

Assessed / Not assessed

• Students will be assessed if they have attended to at least 40% of the theoretical total grade.
• If a student is finally assessed, all not attended assessment activities will be graded 0

FINAL GRADE /Pass criteria

• Grade Ev1-Ev5 = [(Grade Ev1 x 0.25) + (Grade Ev2 x 0.25) + (Grade Ev3 x 0.20) + (Grade Ev4 x 0.20)] + (Grade Ev5 x 0.10)]. 
• Final Grade= (Grade Ev1-Ev5) + (Grade Ev6 x 0.10).  Grade of EV6 only will be added to the Final Grade if grade of EV6 ≥4.95 and (EV1+EV2+EV3+EV4+EV5) is ≥4.95
• To pass this course students must achieve a Final Grade ≥ 4,85 in the continuous assessment.
• Note that final grade is 110% (maximum grade 11 punts). You can achieve the highest grade even with a "0" on Ev6

Reassessment process:

• Reassessment will be offered for not passed assessment activities Ev1 and/or Ev2 and/or Ev3 and/or Ev4 (grade < 4.95). 
• It will not be possible to retake Ev5 and Ev6.
• The students can opt to the reassessment process only if: (1) Final Grade in the continuous assessment is not passed; (2) assessed of a minimum weight of 2/3 of the Final Grade; (3) Final Grade ≥3.5 in the continuous assessment. All the requisites must be fulfilled. If Final Grade ≥3.5 criteria in the continuous assessment is not met, then, exceptionally, Ev6 Grade can sum altought Ev6< 4.95 to make it easier for the student to choose to take the reassessment.
• The reassessment process will consist in assessment activities with the same characteristics as in the continuous assessment. The same criteria will be applied.
• Students with more than one assessment activity not passed could opt to do all of them or choose betweenthem. The obtained grade in thereassessment process will substitute theprevious grade in any case. Not retaken assessment activities will retain the previous grade in order to estimate the new final grade.
• The pass criteria will be the same as in the previous continuous assessment. All new grades will be calculated with the same previous criteria, replacing the grades of the retaken assessment activities.
• In any case the reassessment process can be used to improve passed subject.

No unique final synthesis test for students who enrolefor the second time or more is anticipated.

Single Assessment

This subject does not consider single assessment.

Grade review process. After all grading activities have ended, students will be informed of the date and way in which the course grades will be published. Students will be also be informed of the procedure, place, date and time of grade review in line with University regulations.

N.B. Except for exceptional situations, and only if previously agreed with a student, one week before the assessments, and until the end of the ordinary review, "content" questions will not be answered by email or Moodle. Students must attend teachers office hours.

THE DELIVERY OF THE TRANSLATION OF THE IN-PERSON ASSESSMENT TESTS WILL TAKE PLACE IF THE REQUIREMENTS ESTABLISHED IN ARTICLE 263 ARE MET, AND THE REQUEST IS MADE ELECTRONICALLY DURING WEEK 4 (VIA THE ONLINE FORM) (more information on the Faculty's website)
