Abstract
90 students in introductory psychology responded to a questionnaire designed to assess test-taking strategies on multiple-choice tests. The data suggested that previous studies may not have actually tested item-difficulty sequence effects since item sequence is under examinees' control.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
