Forty Studies That Changed Psychology

Forty Studies That Changed Psychology - Quiz Schedule

Now that you’ve had time to begin reading the required AP Psychology companion book, “Forty Studies That Changed Psychology”, we will begin taking our unit quizzes on the content of those studies. The order of the quizzes is listed below. Note that we will not be taking a quiz on every single study, though I would advise that you still read the rest of them to help reinforce the principles of psychology that we’re learning in class. Each quiz will beapproximately five questions long and focus on the main points of the reading. For units that have more than one reading, the quizzes will be combined into one quiz. The questions will each have two answer options, A or B. You will simply be asked to choose the correct answer. The quizzes will reflect the big questions asked and answered by each study. Look for the broad themes and important conclusions when you read each study.
