Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Forming associations among the elements of information, also known as mnemonic devices, can enhance memory retrieval by creating a connection between new information and existing knowledge. This technique has been proven to be an effective method of studying efficiently.

Answer: None of the above 
 Playing music in the background while studying can be distracting for many people and may decrease concentration. Rehearsing information for hours can cause information overload and is not an efficient use of time. Massed practice sessions, where a large amount of material is learned at once, have been shown to be less effective than spaced practice sessions, where material is learned over multiple shorter study sessions.
