Answers must be cogent enough for the meaning to come through. Spelling and grammatical mistakes do not reduce ascore, but spelling must be close enough so that the reader is convinced of the word.  \n2. A student can earn points only if the student is clearly addressing the topic of the source material in their response.  \n3. The response must apply the concept to the prompt. A definition alone will not earn the point, but a clear definition can support the application.  \n4. Examples provided in the Scoring Guidelines for each of the points are not to be considered exhaustive.  \n5. Within a question part, a response will not be penalized for incorrect information unless it directly contradicts correct information that otherwise would have earned the point(s) . For example, if a student applies a concept by defining it in two contradictory ways (such as applying proactive interference as both interference from older and newer information), the point is not earned.  \n\n| Reporting Category | Scoring Criteria |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Part A\u003Cbr>Claim\u003Cbr>(0–1 points) | 0 points\u003Cbr>Does not propose a claim that is relevant to the question | 1 point\u003Cbr>Proposes a claim that is relevant to the question |\n|  | Decision Rules and Scoring Notes |  |\n|  | Responses that do not earn this point:\u003Cbr>• The response describes the question without making a claim.\u003Cbr>• The response proposes a claim unrelated to the question.\u003Cbr>• The response proposes an oversimplified conclusion or evidence from a provided source. | Responses that earn this point:\u003Cbr>• The response proposes specific effects on the question.\u003Cbr>• The response proposes a claim that suggests a positive or negative effect on the question.\u003Cbr>• The response proposes recommendations for the application of the question. |\n|  | Examples that do not earn this point:\u003Cbr>• “Does the presence of others influence performance?”\u003Cbr>• “Using animals in research can tell us a lot about ourselves.”\u003Cbr>• “Studying the factors that influence performance is important to social psychologists.” | Examples that earn this point:\u003Cbr>• “The presence of others makes a difference in whether someone performs well on a specific task or set of tasks.”\u003Cbr>• “When someone else is present during a performance, it is more likely that the participant will perform well.”\u003Cbr>• “The presence of others will make them do worse at what they are doing.”\u003Cbr>• “People should have an audience for tasks they are good at.” |\n|  | Additional Note:\u003Cbr>• A claim that meets the criteria can be awarded the point regardless of whether the responses in Parts B and C successfully support the claim. |  |\n\n© 2025 College Board  \nAP® Psychology 2025 Scoring Guidelines  \n\n| Reporting Category | Scoring Criteria |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Part B (i)\u003Cbr>Evidence\u003Cbr>(0–1\u003Cbr>points) | 0 points\u003Cbr>Does not identify nor correctly cite one piece of specific evidence from one of the provided sources to support the claim.
