- Who is the Therapies Compared poster for?
- Therapies Compared belongs to the Psychology section rather than to a school year, because life science is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning clinical & abnormal can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
- When should you use the Therapies Compared poster?
- Each therapy has a theory of the cause. That theory determines the method. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Therapies Compared belongs on the wall where that life science work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Therapies Compared?
- Addiction, Anxiety and Biological Treatments sit alongside Therapies Compared in the Psychology section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.AddictionAnxietyBiological Treatments
- Is the Therapies Compared poster free to download and print?
- Yes. Therapies Compared downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Psychology section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
- What size does the Therapies Compared poster print at?
- Therapies Compared is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Therapies Compared loses nothing.Printing guide
