No one has mentioned the use I have found for study guides.  When students 
have difficulty with the multiple choice section of my exams in General 
Psych and Abnormal I recommend that they buy and use the study 
guide.  These students usually report it helps, while many other students 
report finding them boring and unhelpful. I wonder if anyone knows of any 
research on the usefulness of these guides?
