Preface
You have bought or borrowed this book to practice previous year’s questions. This book is
a question bank; however, you will get the same questions that you can get from any other
medium. My effort is to minimise errors and discrepancies so that you get maximum benefit
while studying.
While practising, try to solve the questions within the period prescribed in the exam. As you
go through this book, take your time with the question and answers. Analyse your incor-
rect questions, and try to understand your errors, seeking help from your teacher is a good
option. Before solving the question paper, make sure that you have studied various parts of
psychology carefully. Always keep in mind that there are only two basic mantras to success,
first, to acquire knowledge; Second, to practice
करत-करत अभ्यास ते, जडमति होत सुजान।

रसरी आवत जात तें, सिल पर परत निसान॥
Practice makes perfect, so It is essential to maintain discipline during the preparation of

NET/JRF Test. Best wishes to all of you for the upcoming exams.
