Introduction to UGC NET Psychology

UGC NET Psychology is a core social science subject that explores the scientific study of human behavior and mental processes. It examines how individuals think, feel, learn, and interact within social and cultural environments, drawing from both theoretical perspectives and empirical research.

The examination evaluates a candidate’s understanding of biological bases of behavior, cognitive processes, personality, development, social interaction, psychological assessment, and applied fields such as clinical and organizational psychology. Aspirants are expected to analyze research findings, interpret psychological data, and apply theoretical models to real-world situations.

At ANSS Academy, our UGC NET Psychology mock tests are designed to strengthen conceptual clarity, analytical thinking, and exam confidence for the 2026 cycle.

UGC NET June and December Sessions

The UGC NET examination is conducted twice every year in two major cycles:

June Session

The June session provides candidates an early opportunity to assess their preparation and become familiar with foundational concepts such as learning theories, motivation, and basic research methods.

December Session

The December session is generally more competitive and preferred by aspirants aiming for JRF qualification. With additional months for structured study, candidates can revise advanced topics, practice experimental and statistical questions, and refine their exam strategy through repeated mock tests.

Both sessions follow the same official syllabus, exam pattern, and marking scheme, making consistent preparation essential.
