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.Types of Questions True/FalseMultiple Choice Short AnswerEssay Total Qs Recollection41 (71%) 48 (44%) 0 0 89 Understanding11 (19%) 21 (21%) 7 (37%) 0 39 Application6 (10%) 16 (14%) 2 (10%) 3 (25%) 27 Analysis 0 21 (21%) 10 (53%) 9 (75%) 40
