EDF 3020 Exam 2 (Chapter 4) #1 Questions with correct
answers
test classroom fit - ✔✔a way to evaluate whether a test is measuring the
knowledge base of a group of students after instruction
item analysis - ✔✔gathering performance information on each test item, making
decisions on the items can potentially increase validity of test and reduce student
complaints of test unfairness
p-index - ✔✔to test difficulty, the proportion of the class that got the item
correct, ranges from 0 to 1
d-index - ✔✔to test discrimination, the difficulty between the difficulty for the
high group and the low group, ranges from -1 to 1 correlation
distractors - ✔✔using only the answer of the high group, look for patterns in the
responses of wrong answers
miskey pattern - ✔✔A B* C D
0 1 14 2
ambiguous pattern - ✔✔A B* C D
2970
guessing pattern - ✔✔A B* C D
3452
, typical pattern - ✔✔A B* C D
2 15 1 0
classical conditioning - ✔✔a type of learning in which one learns to link two or
more stimuli and anticipate events, pavlov
generalization - ✔✔responding to similar stimuli in a similar way
discrimination - ✔✔responding to similar stimuli in a different way
successive approximations - ✔✔assuming the CS to CR is overwhelming in a full
dose, the individual is exposed to the CS in baby steps to straddle the
generalization/discrimination line, the stimulus is not increased until the
individual reports that there is no discomfort at the current level
unconditioned stimulus - ✔✔in classical conditioning, a stimulus that
unconditionally—naturally and automatically—triggers a response.
unconditioned response - ✔✔In classical conditioning, the unlearned, naturally
occurring response to the unconditioned stimulus (US), such as salivation when
food is in the mouth.
conditioned stimulus - ✔✔in classical conditioning, an originally irrelevant
stimulus that, after association with an unconditioned stimulus, comes to trigger a
conditioned response
