Improving Multiple-Choice Test Performance for Examinees with Different Levels of Test Anxiety.
Crocker, Linda; Schmitt, Alicia
Journal of Experimental Education, v55 n4 p201-05 Sum 1987
The effectiveness of a strategy for improving performance on multiple-choice items for examinees was assessed using an aptitude-treatment interaction model. Results showed that for low-anxious examinees, generation of an answer before selecting a response led to higher performance, but not for highly anxious examinees. (Author/JAZ)
