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.
