Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The levels of processing framework suggests that deeper processing of information, such as thinking about the meaning of the material instead of just repeating it, leads to better memory retention. It does not make assumptions about the length of time material spends in short-term memory or prioritize procedural memory. It also suggests that having a meaningful context for information enhances memory, so D is not correct.
