多项选择题被分配给两组学生。A组(N= 60)被要求标记他们认为正确的每个子项,B组(N= 57)被要求指出他们认为正确的子项和错误的子项。两组人都被建议猜测。两组的时间、RW分数、信度和效度相同。然而,在“默认”得分上,即被标记为真实的项目的数量上,存在显著差异。这些分数随着测试中真假项目的百分比而变化,因为“默认”倾向于猜测项目是真的而不是假的。如果进一步的研究证明“默许”是一种真正的影响,那么在考试前,学生应该被告知填上“正确”的项目的百分比,这样他们就可以相应地调整自己的回答。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c) 2017 APA,版权所有)
Multiple choice items were administered to two groups of students. Group A (N= 60) was instructed to mark each sub-item which they thought true, group B (N= 57), to indicate both which of the sub-items they thought true and which false. Both groups were advised to guess. The time, RW scores, reliability, and validity were equivalent for the two groups. There was, however, a significant difference in" acquiescence" scores, ie number of items marked as true. These scores vary with the percentage of true and false items in the test, due to the" acquiescent" tendency to guess items as true rather than false. If further study should prove acquiescence to be a genuine influence, students should be told, before taking a test, the percentage of items keyed" true," so that they may adjust their responses accordingly.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved)
