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.
