Learning from Tests: The Case of True-False Examinations.
Toppino, Thomas C.; Brochin, H. Ann
Journal of Educational Research, v83 n2 p119-24 Nov-Dec 1989
Study findings indicate that exposure to a statement on a true-false test increased college students' (N=64) tendency to believe the statement was true, regardless of whether the statement actually was true or false. In contrast to previous research, these findings support existence of a negative suggestion effect for true-false exams. (IAH)
