Inhibition models of serial order short-term memory suggest that __________.
A) irrelevant information in short-term memory is inhibited
B) recently recalled information is inhibited
C) semantic (meaning-based) information is inhibited in favor of order information
D) information that is currently not being recalled is inhibited, to aid in recall focus

Question

Inhibition models of serial order short-term memory suggest that __________.
A) irrelevant information in short-term memory is inhibited
B) recently recalled information is inhibited 
C) semantic (meaning-based) information is inhibited in favor of order information
D) information that is currently not being recalled is inhibited, to aid in recall focus

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inhibition models of serial order short-term memory propose that recently recalled information is inhibited to prevent it from being recalled again, thus aiding in the recall of subsequent items in the correct order.
