Case Studies – Reading Comprehension
Tragic Choices: Autism, Measles, and the MMR Vaccine
Abstract: This case explores the purported connection between vaccines in general, and the MMR vaccine specifically, and autism. Students examine results from the 1998 Lancet article that ignited and still fuels the anti-vaccine movement; students are then asked to design a better study to test the causal relationship between the vaccine and the disorder. This case was developed to help science-phobic undergraduates understand the distinctions between good science, bad science, and pseudoscience. Most importantly, the case shows how "thinking scientifically" is a learnable skill that can empower students to make intelligent choices for themselves and their families. As such, the case would be suitable for any course introducing students to the nature of science, good (vs. not-so-good) experimental designs, appropriate interpretations of data, science as a self-correcting process, etc. Opportunities exist to expand the case to focus on issues related to research ethics, responsible journalism, and the interface between science, society, and the law.

Multiple Choice Test-taking Strategies
Multiple choice questions are one of the most common types of questions that you will encounter, particularly on standardized exams. There are many strategies for maximizing your success on multiple choice exams. The best way to improve your chances, of course, is to study carefully before the exam. There is no good substitute for knowing the right answer. Even a well-prepared student can make silly mistakes on a multiple choice exam, falling to distractors, incorrect answers in a multiple choice question, that look very similar to the correct answer.
1. Read each question completely to make sure that you know what the
question is asking you to identify. Think about what is being asked. If a drawing or diagram goes with a question, study it carefully to help you answer the question.
2. Anticipate the answer. Use what you know to guess what you think
the answer should be. Then look to see if your answer, or one much like it, is given as an option. Here’s an example:
Which of the following is a costal wetland?
A. oxbow B. salt marsh C. reservoir D. tributary
Before you even read the choices, think of what you know about the coast and wetlands. You may immediately think of a salt marsh as an example of a coastal wetland. Even if you don’t know the answer right away, you may be able to infer the answer by using what you do know. For example, most people associate the word salt with the ocean and therefore the seacoast. The word salt is therefore a clue that choice B, salt marsh, is the correct answer.
3. The process of elimination can be one of the most useful techniques in
answering a question correctly. Because the multiple choice questions in the MCT2 and SATP exams give you four answer choices from which
S. Smith – October 27, 2011
30
to choose-and only one of the choices is the correct answer- figuring out which three answer choices are incorrect is just as helpful as figuring out which one answer choice is correct. If you are able to eliminate only one or two of the answer choices, you still greatly improve your chances of getting the correct answer, even if you end up having to guess from the choices that remain. Here’s an example:
Which of the following belongs to the first trophic level in all food chains?
A. carnivores B. omnivores C. herbivores D. photosynthetic autotrophs
Read the question carefully. Look for key words, such as tropic level and food chains. Did you remember that the first trophic level in all food chains is populated by producers? Producers are capable of making their own food. Now look at each answer choice individually and eliminate the ones that you know are wrong. Carnivores are animals that cannot make their own food and have to eat other animals for energy. They comprise the third and fourth trophic level of a food chain. Therefore, you can eliminate (A). Omnivores also cannot produce their own food and get their energy from eating both animals and plants. Therefore, you can eliminate (B). Herbivores are animals that cannot produce their own food and feed on plants. They are part of the second trophic level in a food chain. You can eliminate (C). Photosynthetic autotrophs can produce their own food, which supports (D) as the correct answer. That leaves (D) as the only possible answer choice. Photosynthetic autotrophs are the only organisms listed that are capable of producing their own food.
4. If you cannot answer a question, mark it and go back to it later. Go on
to the questions you are able to answer. You may find that as you answer other questions on the test you are reminded of a concept that helps you answer a skipped question. Be careful when you skip a question. Make sure to leave a blank space on your answer sheet for
S. Smith – October 27, 2011
31
that question so that you can come back later and make your best guess. Questions left unanswered are marked incorrect.
5. Because the test is not timed, you will have plenty of time to complete it. Nonetheless, it is still important to pace yourself. Pacing yourself will help you keep from dwelling on questions that give you trouble and will also help keep you from selecting answer choices too rashly. Keep an even, steady pace and work carefully and conscientiously. Answer the questions you know and return to any that give you trouble once you reach the end of the test.
6. If you find two correct answers, you may need to reread the question to see whether it is asking for the “best” answer, or for “all that apply.” Also, compare them for differences and then refer to the stem to find your best answer.
7. Beware of words that change or limit the meaning of other words: always, only, most, all, sometimes, usually, rarely, some, except.
8. Read carefully when a question contains words or prefixes that make a negative construction: no, cannot, not, im-, in-, il-. Be especially careful if there are two or more negatives in the same sentence or passage.
9. For a statement to be correct, all of the information in the statement must be correct. For a statement to be false, only one bit of information needs to be inaccurate.
10. Once you have completed all of the questions, go back and review your answers. This is a great way to avoid from losing points because of careless errors you may have made.
