This arcade-style quiz is designed for AQA A Level Sociology: Families and Households, which appears in Paper 2, Section A as one of the Option 1 topics. The AQA specification requires students to study: the relationship of the family to social structure and social change, especially the economy and state policies; changing patterns of marriage, cohabitation, separation, divorce, childbearing and the life course; the sociology of personal life and family diversity; gender roles, domestic labour and power relationships; the nature and status of childhood; and demographic trends in the UK since 1900, including birth rates, death rates, family size, life expectancy, the ageing population, migration and globalisation.
This version uses the same one-life arcade format, but it is stretched into four rounds of 20 questions with a single 9-minute timer across the whole run. Round 1 covers theories, social structure and policy. Round 2 covers marriage, divorce, cohabitation, family diversity and personal life. Round 3 covers gender roles, domestic labour, power and childhood. Round 4 covers demography and mixed synoptic questions across the whole topic. One wrong answer or the timer reaching zero ends the run immediately.
