Verification of a Model of Test-Taking Behavior of High School Seniors.

Rogers, W. Todd; Bateson, David J.

Journal of Experimental Education, v59 n4 p331-50 Sum 1991

Thirty-six testwise and 41 test-naive high school seniors in British Columbia (Canada) were tested to determine their abilities to apply selected test wiseness principles according to a proposed model of test-taking behavior. To apply the testwiseness strategy, students first needed knowledge of the content tested and test item content. (SLD)
