Memory and Learning Quiz

According to the Elaboration Principle, when is memory for an event best remembered?

• When the event is unique and stands alone

• When you connect that event to other things you already know

• When the event occurs frequently

• When the event is recorded in writing

What does the Organization Principle suggest about memory?

• Memory is best when it is stored in a chronological order

• Memory is best when events are related to each other at the time of encoding

• Memory is best when it is rehearsed repeatedly

• Memory is best when it is stored in isolation from other events
