In this revision of the test bank, I have updated all of the questions to reflect changes in
Society: The Basics, 14th edition. In this revision, the questions are tagged according to
six levels of learning that move from lower-level to higher-level cognitive reasoning. The
six levels are:
REMEMBER: a question involving recall of key terms or factual material
UNDERSTAND: a question testing comprehension of more complex ideas
APPLY: a question applying sociological knowledge to some new situation
ANALYZE: a question requiring identifying elements of an argument and their
interrelationship
The 182 questions in this chapter’s test bank are divided into four types of questions.
True/False questions are the least demanding. As the table below shows, two-thirds of
these questions are “Remember” questions and all questions fall within the lowest three
levels of cognitive reasoning (Remember, Understand, and Apply). Multiple-choice
questions span a broader range of skills (almost half are “Remember” questions and the
remainder are divided among four higher levels.) Short answer questions also span a
broad range of skills (from “Understand” to “Evaluate”). Finally, essay questions are the
most demanding because they include the four highest levels of cognitive reasoning
(from “Apply” to “Create”).
