I always give a comprehensive final in classes (to enhance distributed practice 
effects) and have used the same few essay items in a pool I created. However, I 
thought it might be good to expand my small pool. So I am asking if anyone on 
the list has some items that span across topics in cognition. For example, one 
of my items asks students to evaluate the idea of "depth" in terms of memory 
(Craik & Lockhard), language (Chomsky), and problem solving (Gick & Holyoak). I 
also use one on feature detection (pattern recognition), feature frequency 
models (categorization) and feature comparison models (semantic organizaation). 
I have  few more that are similarly cross-chapter items.

Anyone have other similar items to share for a final exam?

Thanks.
