考生必知：選擇題該不該換答案、選C？| 心理學人

For students who care about grades, what should they do when they are not sure about a multiple choice answer on an exam? Should they change answers? Should they trust the first answer they put down? Some people also say that choice C has a higher probability of being correct than other choices. Is it the case? Why do we have all these exam-related myths? Psychology Fellows will break the myths for students today! Introduction Myth #1: Trust first answers in MCQ? Myth #2: When in doubt, choose C? Conclusion: Believe in yourself, have good time allocation…. and study hard! --------------------------------------------------------------- References & Music Bauer, D., Kopp, V., & Fischer, M. R.
