LOP model of memory review

The levels of processing model (Craik & Lockhart, 1972) focuses on the ________ of processing involved in memory.

• length

• clarity

• depth

• attention

The levels of processing model (Craik & Lockhart, 1972) predicts the deeper information is processed, the ________ a memory trace will last.

• shorter

• quicker

• longer

• idea

Unlike the MSM model, the LOP model is a ______________ approach. The basic idea is that memory is really just what happens as a result of processing information.

• structured

• non-structured

In the LOP model, instead of concentrating on the stores/structures involved (i.e. short term memory & long term memory), this theory concentrates on the _____________ involved in memory.

• sensory

• short term

• processes

• external stimulus

In the LOP model, Structural processing (appearance) and Phonemic (sound) processing are examples of which type of processing?

• Shallow

• Deep

• Sensory

• Long term

Semantic processing is a form of deep processing.

• True

• False

____________ processing, which happens when we encode the meaning of a word and relate it to similar words with similar meaning.

• shallow

• phonemic

• structural

• Semantic

____________ processing is when we encode only the physical qualities of something.

• phonemic

• structural

• semantic

According to the LOP model, shallow processing only involves ____________________________ (repetition to help us hold something in the STM) and leads to fairly short-term retention of information. 

• maintenance rehearsal

• Deep processing

• Highlighting

• phonemic processing

The results of the Craik and Tulving study was that participants recalled more words that were phonemically processed compared to semanctic and visually processed words.

• True

• False
