Effects of Corrective Testing: An Extension.
Arkin, Robert M; Schumann, David W.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v76 n5 p835-43 Oct 1984
This study provides a parametric extension of the immediate feedback and partial credit components of Pressey's corrective testing procedure. On several measures of students' subjective reactions, corrective testing feedback was superior to conventional multiple choice format. Providing students two attempts to answer each item obtained the most positive student reaction. (Author/BS)
