Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Repeating the list over and over is an example of rehearsal, which is a strategy of repetition to maintain information in short-term memory for longer periods of time. Mnemonics involves associating information with a memorable phrase or image, systematic searching involves breaking information into smaller parts to search for connections, and organization involves categorizing information in a meaningful way. While these strategies may also be helpful in information processing, none of them are specifically demonstrated in the given scenario.
