Chapter 1: Sociology: Perspective, Theory, and Method In this revision of the test bank, I have updated all of the questions to reflect changes in Society: The Basics, Sixteenth Edition and increased the number of questions by 50 percent so that this test bank covers all the new material that has been added and better meets your needs. The questions are tagged according to four levels of learning that move from lower-level to higher-level cognitive reasoning. The four levels: Recollection: a question involving recall of key terms or factual material Understanding: a question testing comprehension of more complex ideas Application: a question applying sociological knowledge to some new situation
