Criteria Feedback
- You communicate a clear and current investigation topic and keep it anchored in a recognisable World Studies context.
- Your research question is explicit, specific to UK adolescents, and clearly sets up a comparative inquiry.
- You select methods that are broadly suitable for answering the question, including a literature review, questionnaire, and secondary-data comparison.
- The question is still a little broad because the three predictor domains are not tied to a clear rule for comparison.
- The discussion sometimes drifts across related but distinct ideas, which makes the focus less precise than it could be.
- The methodological justification would be stronger if you explained more fully why each method was the best fit for this exact question.

B.2Knowledge demonstration and application

B.3Use of terminology and concepts
Good
Criteria Feedback
- You show clear understanding of relevant biological and psychological ideas and usually apply them to the investigation rather than describing them in isolation.
- You use subject-specific terminology effectively, including developmental and statistical concepts, which helps the analysis sound academically grounded.
- You draw on a relevant range of source material and usually connect it back to the question in a meaningful way.
- Some technical explanations are not always precise enough, which weakens the authority of the scientific discussion.
- A few sources are only indirectly relevant to the specific UK adolescent vaping question, so the evidence is not always perfectly targeted.
- At times the biological and psychological material sits in separate blocks rather than being fully integrated into one coherent explanation.
