Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to the Levels of Processing (LOP) approach, deeper levels of processing lead to better memory retention in both short-term memory and long-term memory. This means that short-term memory and long-term memory are separate systems that are both affected by the depth of processing. Therefore, the statement that shallow levels of processing lead to long-term memory and deeper levels of processing lead to short-term memory is incorrect.
