Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transfer-appropriate processing occurs when the type of processing used during encoding matches the type of processing used during retrieval. This means that the type of encoding task should match the type of retrieval task. For example, if someone was asked to remember a list of words by their sound, they are more likely to remember the words if they are asked to recall them using their sound rather than their visual appearance. So, option B is the best choice.
