Question

Lane is learning to recognize lowercase letters.He is able to do this by ignoring the fact that some lowercase letters do not look like their uppercase counterparts.This is an example of:
A)decoding.
B)encoding.
C)automaticity.
D)attention.

Answer 1

Answer:

B) Encoding.

Explanation:

Encoding is the process of converting or processing information from one form of data to another. It is different from decoding in that decoding requires decrypting an encrypted message while encoding simply involves changing or converting the information.

Lane's ability to recognize lowercase and uppercase letters by ignoring some facts about the difference between the two is a process of encoding. Thus, the correct answer is b.
