- Norming psychological tests is critical for accurately interpreting test scores, but traditional methods can create biases or need large samples to be effective.
- Continuous norming methods—including inferential, semi-parametric, and parametric techniques—aim to address these challenges.
- A review of 121 publications revealed that most studies favored simplified parametric norming, but not all accounted for key distributional factors, and the comparison of norming approaches showed that parametric norms offered the highest precision in real data applications.
The forward testing effect is an indirect benefit of retrieval practice. It refers to the finding that retrieval practice of previously studied information enhances learning and retention of subsequently studied other information in episodic memory tasks. Here, two experiments were conducted that investigated whether retrieval practice influences participants' performance in other tasks, i.
