Question

Your friend has volunteered for a psychology demonstration. She will be taught a list of words while wearing SCUBA gear at the bottom of a pool, and then she will be asked to remember the words when she returns to class. This demonstration is most likely exploring.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is Retrieval.

Explanation:

Retrieval can be understood as the re-access of coded events that happened in the past or that the individual has coded in his memory, whether long-term or short-term.

It is also know as remembering.

Retrieval is an important process of the cognitive ability known as memory Certain disorders affect this process such as certain dementias and other neuropsychological disorders.

In this particular case, your friend will be taught a list of words and then she will be asked to remember the words when she returns to class. This demonstration is most likely exploring Retrieval.

Answer 2

Answer:

Retrieval

Explanation:

According to psychology, there are three processes involved in human memory:

1. Encoding: this is the first step in the memory process. Encoding helps us to transform items into constructs that will be stored later in our memory.
2. Storage: is the process of storing the information that was encoded earlier. It can be stored either in our short-term memory or in our long-term memory.
3. Retrieval: This is the process that helps us remember and bring to conscience the information that was stored earlier. The process of retrieval helps us 're-access' to the information that was previously saved in our memory.

In this example, our friend will be taught a list of words and then she will be asked to remember the words the next class. Thus, she will be asked to retrieve the words she learned on the first class and that went through the process of storage during that first class, this is the function of the retrieval memory process. Therefore, we can say that this demonstration is most likely exploring the process of retrieval.
