, Chapter 1: The Sociological Perspective
In this revision of the test bank, I have updated all of the questions to reflect changes in
Sociology, Eighteenth Edition. The questions are tagged to indicate one of four levels of
learning that move from lower-level to higher-level cognitive reasoning. The four levels:
Recollection: a question involving recall of key terms or factual material
Understanding: a question testing comprehension of more complex ideas
Application: a question applying sociological knowledge to some new situation
Analysis: a question requiring identifying elements of an argument and their
interrelationship
The 195 questions in this chapter‘s test bank are divided into four types. True/False
questions are the least demanding. As the table below shows, two-thirds of these are
―Recollection‖ questions, and all of them fall within the lowest three levels of cognitive
reasoning (―Recollection,‖ ―Understanding,‖ and ―Application‖). Multiple-choice
questions span a broader range of skills (most are ―Recollection‖ questions and the
remainder are divided among the three higher levels). Short-answer questions are
spread across the highest three levels of reasoning. Finally, essay questions are the
most demanding because they require analysis and other higher levels of cognitive
reasoning.
