Classroom Use

Classroom use of the Personalized System of Instruction (PSI) was investigated by sending questionnaires to three groups, early (before 1975) users of PSI, recent (after 1975) users, and current chairpersons of psychology departments. Data from all three sources suggest that fewer PSI courses are being taught, and that many depart substantially from the original PSI format.

Personalized System

The number of text alternatives in a Personalized System of Instruction were increased from two to three for text modules, and from one to two for film and tape modules. In addition, all tests were standardized at 10 items. Findings were that many students used the first text exam as a study guide; the film and tape data were comparable to previous years. Course implications were discussed.
