As part of a pronunciation task, you are presented with a list of made-up names. Later, during a second, unrelated task, some of
the names appear again. Which factor will LEAST influence the likelihood that you will think the name belongs to a famous person? A) the amount of time between the pronunciation task and the second task
B) the attribution given for the sense of familiarity experienced when seeing the names for the second time
C) whether the names are presented in the auditory or visual modality
D) the degree of processing fluency experienced when seeing names for the second time
C) whether the names are presented in the auditory or visual modality
Explanation:
Modalities are the ways an individual receive or store information through sensory pathway. An auditory modality is the ability to hear while visual modality is the ability to see.
From the above definitions, we can therefore see that auditory and visual modalities have the least influence of likelihood that one will think the name belongs to a famous person as compared to the other options.
If it makes it easier, when trying to find the direct object in a sentence you have to ask yourself what the subject is receiving. What did Mr. west study?
