Marsh et al. (2007) argue that feedback is particularly important following multiple-choice tests because individuals are exposed to incorrect responses, and when an incorrect response is chosen, it is often repeated on subsequent tests. This phenomenon is known as the "testing effect" or "test-enhanced learning," where the act of retrieving an answer to a question improves learning more than additional study of the material. However, without feedback, learners may continue to reinforce incorrect answers.
