Cognitive-Style Differences in Testing Situations.
Armstrong, Anne-Marie
Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, v12 n3 p17-22 Fall 1993
The effects of test performance of differentially written multiple-choice tests and test takers' cognitive style were studied for 47 graduate students and 35 public school and college teachers. Adhering to test-writing item guidelines resulted in mean scores basically the same for two groups of differing cognitive style. (SLD)
