Test Mode, Test Instructions, and Retention.
Kumar, V. K.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v4 n3 p211-18 Jul 1979
Ninth-graders read a passage for a test to be taken the next day, anticipating a recall test, a multiple-choice test, and a retention test. Half received either a recall or a recognition test regardless of prior instructions. Subjects did better on the recognition tests in all conditions. (Author/RD)
