Effects of "On-Line" Test Feedback on the Seriousness of Subsequent Errors.

Birenbaum, Menucha; Tatsuoka, Kikumi K.

Journal of Educational Measurement, v24 n2 p145-55 Sum 1987

The present study examined the effect of three modes of feedback on the seriousness of error types committed on a post-test. The effect of the feedback made on post-test errors was found to be differential and dependent upon the seriousness of errors committed on the pre-test. (Author/LMO)
