Dear Instructor:
These are a bank of questions you can select from to build your own quizzes. Some of the
questions may be multiple choice or matching, but you could present the question without the
choices as a short-answer or fill-in-the-blank questions instead. And some may be variations of
the same question; so you might not want to use all of them on the same quiz. Also some of the
questions may be too tough for undergrads but appropriate for grad students. The asterisk and
parentheses indicate the correct answers. Our definition questions are usually presented in
matching, fill-in-the-blank, and write-out format, allowing you to select the level of difficulty
appropriate for you course level.
True confessions: Some of our multiple-choice and fill-in-the blank questions are so
trivial, that most people could answer them correctly, without having ever opened the book. The
problem is that definitions etc. are such that often you can’t ask a meaningful question about
them, without the answer being obvious. But I have the fantasy of updating the quiz bank, with
Taylor & Francis and/or privately; so if you come up with any good alternatives you’d care to
share with other instructors, I’d be happy to mediate. And the same goes for any other questions,
quizzes, or formats you come up with, e.g., additional what’s-this-an-example-of questions,
including novel examples not in the book; also questions formatted for online testing; and
whatever else.
Of course, sometimes, on some quizzes, I include a smart-ass alternative answer for a few
of the multiple-choice questions; and even more of course, you can delete any you find
inappropriate or add some of your own.
Over the years, we’ve found that quizzing students frequently, results in better
understanding and retention of the material, than giving only a few exams over the semester.
And we just ask students to reproduce what they’ve read in the chapter, without having to apply
the concepts in new ways on the quiz. Instead, we have students create original examples of
contingencies and concepts for their homework. This allows students to apply those concepts to
situations in their own lives without the fear of losing points on a quiz. We have our students
present their homework to the class and get feedback from other students and the instructor. As
long as they show up to class with their homework completed, they are allowed to make edits
prior to turning in the homework, without fear of losing points.
I would like to acknowledge Sofia Peters, PhD and Cara Cech, MA for their considerable
help in developing the PoB 8e Quiz Question Bank.
Thanks much,
Dick
