Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In the Levels of Processing Theory, individuals will remember ____
A
only what they process
B
everything included in the notes they take
C
little to nothing
D
information for no more than 1 hour
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Levels of Processing model, created by Fergus I. M. Craik and Robert S. Lockhart in 1972, describes memory recall of stimuli as a function of the depth of mental processing. Deeper levels of analysis produce more elaborate, longer-lasting, and stronger memory traces than shallow levels of analysis.

Detailed explanation-2: -The levels of processing effect suggests that in the long-run, repetition is insufficient for long-term memory. Instead, we must encode information semantically, by relating it to other ideas and knowledge. This encodes the information on a deep level and is a more effective studying technique.

Detailed explanation-3: -Perfetti (in Cermak & Craik, 1979, p159-180) extends the levels of processing framework to language comprehension. He proposes seven levels: acoustic, phonology, syntactic, semantic, referential, thematic, and functional.

Detailed explanation-4: -The visceral level is fast: it makes rapid judgments of what is good or bad, safe or dangerous, and sends appropriate signals to the muscles (the motor system) and alerts the rest of the brain.
