Question

Rather than simply memorizing key terms and concepts, Jeremy focused on the meaning of the information in the chapter and tried to generate examples of concepts from his own experiences. Jeremy was using _____ to help encode information into his long-term memory.
a) contextual cues
b) elaborative rehearsal
c) the serial position effect
d) maintenance rehearsal

Answer 1

Answer:

Elaborative rehearsal.

Explanation:

Memory may be defined as the ability of the brain to memorize the incident or any other information. Two types of memory are short term memory and long term memory.

The long term memory can be converted to the short term memory by multiple rehearsal and memorizing the things again and again. Jeremy must be using elaborative rehearsal to memorize the chapter and generate examples to create his own experience.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
