T he questions for each chapter are organized according to type: true-false, multiple-choice, short-
answer, and essay. Within each of these categories, questions are clustered by topic, roughly
following the order of topics in the textbook.
To provide as much flexibility as possible in constructing examinations, there is deliberate overlap
O
among the questions, both within and across question types. This enables you to choose the wording
and question type that best fits your testing objectives. In deciding which questions to use, take care to
avoid items such as a multiple-choice question that gives away the answer to a true-false or short-
FD
answer question, or an essay question that covers essentially the same ground as a true-false, short-
answer, or multiple-choice question.
Each type of question—true-false, multiple-choice, short-answer, and essay—has an automatic
numbering system, which means you can copy and paste items from within a question type, and they will
automatically number themselves consecutively, beginning with “1.” The five answer choices for each
O
multiple-choice question are also ordered automatically, so you can add, change, or reorder answer
choices without rearranging the lettering.

If you would like to preserve the fonts, indents, and tabs of the original questions, you can copy and
paste questions into the Exam Master provided at the end of the Test Bank. In the Exam Master, spaces
for your course name, exam type, and the student’s name and section are followed by headings and
instructions for true-false, multiple-choice, short-answer, and essay questions. You can add elements
unique to your exams and delete elements you don’t want to use. After you customize the Exam Master,
you can save it with your changes. Then, each time you open it, click “Save As” to give it the name of
the exam you are currently constructing.
