Might not the nature of the course, and one's goals for that course play a
major role in determining the nature of the final exam? It would seem that
in courses like statistics and research methods, a cumulative or
integrative final might be appropriate because of the nature of the course.
In General Psychology (or whatever one calls it), the choice of a
cumulative final may depend much more on the goals the individual
instructor has for that course.
