Abstract
AbstractThe reinforcing and/or informational effects of immediacy of feedback on test performance have been a topic of some debate for several years. In the present research, it was hypothesized that subjects receiving knowledge of the correct answer to each item, immediately after answering, would exhibit superior test performance when compared with control groups. Subjects were matchpaired on the basis of their first examination scores. Subsequently, one group was tested on a Modular EDEX Student Response System which provided immediate item-by-item feedback. Control groups took the examination in the traditional and modular manner with no immediate feedback. Scores of. the immediate feedback group were significantly higher than those of the traditional groups.
