Abstract | College students (N = 151) completed three in-class mathematics assignments that varied with respect to the order of short, medium, and long multiplication problems, including a short-to-long order, a long-to-short order, and a random order. Problem order within assignments did not significantly affect work accuracy, completion time, or assignment preference. However, participants rated (1) the assignment with random order as less difficult than the other two assignments and (2) the assignment with long-to-short order as requiring less time than the other two assignments. Participants were likely to choose a related homework assignment viewed as less effortful, less difficult, or less time consuming. Several concepts (e.g., matching law, behavioral momentum, and Premack reinforcement principle) were used in interpreting the results. (Contains 3 tables.) (As Provided). |
