Question

Students who study throughout the term and then restudy course material at the end of a semester to pass a comprehensive final are especially likely to demonstrate long-term retention of the course material. This best illustrates: a. chunking. b. the serial position effect. c. implicit memory. d. the spacing effect.

Answer 1

Students who study throughout the term and then restudy course material at the end of a semester to pass a comprehensive final are especially likely to demonstrate long-term retention of the course material. This best illustrates

d. the spacing effect.

Explanation:

The spacing effect postulates that the students who learn the course over the period of time in the term over its entire course are able to retain information better and become better learned than the ones that cram it only in the end.

This is because information is better processed when it is learned over a period of time given intervals to settle down and be part of the inner memory of a person before more chunks are introduced to the brain.

Answer 2

This best illustrates the spacing effect.

Option: D

Explanation:

In effective teaching learning process when a student is gone throughout the term and then restudy course material at the end of a semester to pass a comprehensive final are especially likely to demonstrate long term retention of the course material .

It is an example of spacing effect which judge that after whole year study how much a student can be able to retain in his mind. And a particular space is also allocated in human brain for various subject. When he undergoes some sorts of test he recapitulates and recall all the materials through which he already gone through.
