, Preface
Given the popularity of the undergraduate course in abnormal psychology as well as the
exigencies imposed by large class sizes in most colleges and universities, many
instructors employ multiple choice exams as a primary means of evaluating student
learning. I have tried to produce a diverse array of such questions, along with a few
short answer/essay items at the end of each chapter. I hope you find them useful as you
create exams for your course.

Each item is presented with several descriptive qualifiers, listed just below the item
number. For instance, here is an item from Chapter 7:
7. 6 Dr. Seshachari is treating a client who is diagnosed with one of the most common
Ans. C anxiety disorders. Which of the following would this be?
App a. generalized anxiety
p. 217 b. panic disorder
E
* c. social phobia
d. obsessive-compulsive disorder
7. 6 > chapter number. item number
Ans. C > correct answer
App > type of item: APPLIED (App), CONCEPTUAL (Con), FACTUAL (Fac)
p. 217 > page reference for answer
E > item difficulty: EASY (E), MODERATE (M), CHALLENGING (C)1
* indicates item is found in the student Practice Tests (20 per chapter)

Each chapter has at least 65% Applied items and roughly 15% Conceptual and 15%
Factual. I would very much appreciate your feedback and suggestions as you use these
items. Please contact me by email: sfuhr@weber. edu.

I would like to express my thanks to the several individuals without whose aid and
support this project would not have come to fruition. To Doug Bernstein, thank you for
recommending me and providing all-important social support via the electronic highway.
And hearty thanks to Sue Gleason, my stalwart, always reassuring editor who's been a
pleasure to work with. About 250 items in this bank were written, and my own writing
reviewed, by some of Weber State University's brightest and best students: Danny May,
Bryce Warren, Shayne Palmer, Angie Wehr, and Todd Woodward. And Amanda
Allman, of Illinois, was a saving grace toward the end of the project, writing several
items for the last three chapters. Thanks Amanda. And now that I've written, rewritten,
and edited the last item, I can tell my long-neglected spouse that I'll soon be back to
normal (whatever that is!).

I encourage you to bear in mind that because this is a new testbank for a new text, these difficulty levels
are rationally based and await empirical item analysis. Your own choices for class coverage and
emphases will affect the accuracy of these recommended levels.
