Answer:

Proactive Interference.

Explanation:

In psychology, the term interference is used to refer to the phenomenon of forgetting in a long term memory. Forgetting of memories occurs due to the interference of memories with each other.

Proactive interference, thus, refers to the phenomenon of forgetting new memories because of old stored memory. The word 'pro' means 'forward', so the interference occurs when there's interference from the old memory to the new memory. The old tasks that have been learned interferes with the learning of new tasks.

<u>In the given case, Shalissa, who learned French and History, was unable to retrieve the memory of History as she studied French first and there was interference from the old task to the new task. That's why all she remembered was French</u>.

So, the correct answer is proactive interference.

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Being a form of dishonesty, political corruption implies that those who are entrusted with power over people, here the Russian czar family over, become influenced by others who seek to satisfy their own gain, here Rasputin. While, it may not necessarily harm the people at all times, political corruption creates a channel of influence over the the political figures, which would most likely to be abused but the third parties.
