Question

your psychology professor schedules an exam for the next class but does not say what type of test it will be. you study for the exam using a multiple-choice practice test, while your friend studies using a practice test with true/false questions. according to the transfer-appropriate processing principle, all other factors being equal, who is likely to do better on the exam if the questions are multiple choice?

Answer 1

you, because you studied with multiple choice questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

true or false questions are usually either extremely broad, slightly misleading, or painstakingly specific, whereas multiple choice questions are in between. studying with true-false questions may lead to only knowing a few nonspecific or too specific factual tidbits while studying with a multiple choice will allow you to view things with a slightly more open set of mind.
