Testing effects occur when participants' performance on a test is influenced by having taken the test before. Fatigue or boredom after taking a test once can be considered a testing effect. History effects refer to outside events that occur between the pre-test and post-test. Group differences refer to differences between groups that are being compared. Maturation effects refer to changes in participants over time that are not related to the intervention being tested.
