Bol, Linda; Hacker, Douglas J.
Journal of Experimental Education, v69 n2 p133-51 Win 2001
Studied the impact of practice tests on students' calibration and examination performance for multiple-choice and essay examinations. Results for 59 graduate students show that practice tests were associated with significantly lower scores on the midterm multiple-choice items and less accurate predictions and postdictions on these items. Discusses the implications of these findings. (SLD)
