evaluate the strengths.
-equal numbers of question type. -the test was a surprise, so increased validity which ensured storage is a by-product of processing.

-lacked mundane realism and ecological validity as the findings can't generalise to real life settings. -Ptps could have processed questions in different ways to what was intended, so reduced validity.
