Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The processing of information into the memory system is called:
A
encoding
B
retrieval
C
rehearsal
D
storage
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -We get information into our brains through a process called encoding, which is the input of information into the memory system. Once we receive sensory information from the environment, our brains label or code it.

Detailed explanation-2: -Encoding is defined as the initial learning of information; storage refers to maintaining information over time; retrieval is the ability to access information when you need it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Encoding is the act of getting information into our memory system through automatic or effortful processing. Storage is retention of the information, and retrieval is the act of getting information out of storage and into conscious awareness through recall, recognition, and relearning.

Detailed explanation-4: -Encoding is the process of turning thoughts into communication. The encoder uses a ‘medium’ to send the message-a phone call, email, text message, face-to-face meeting, or other communication tool. The level of conscious thought that goes into encoding messages may vary.

Detailed explanation-5: -Memory encoding allows information to be converted into a construct that is stored in the brain indefinitely; once it is encoded, it can be recalled from either short-or long-term memory. The four primary types of encoding are visual, acoustic, elaborative, and semantic.
