• Short-term memory → Sensory memory → Long-term memory

• Sensory memory → Short-term memory → Long-term memory

A student needs to memorize a list of 20 English vocabulary words. Which of the following methods will help that student memorize more effectively than just reading them over and over?

The phenomenon of "forgetting curve" by Ebbinghaus shows what about human memory?

When students apply the "chunking" technique to memorize the phone number 0912345678, which of the following correctly represents this technique?

• 0 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

• 0912 - 345 - 678

• Read the phone number backwards: 8765432190

• Write the phone number in letters

A 13th-grade student is preparing for an important exam in 4 weeks. Based on scientific principles of memory, which of the following study plans will yield the best memorization results?

• Study all content in the last 2 days before the exam

• Review regularly every day, gradually increasing the interval between study sessions and incorporating self-testing

• Only read the materials every night before sleeping without taking notes

• Study continuously for 8 hours a day without breaks

Analyze the following situation: Student A studies by coloring in the textbook, while Student B asks and answers questions about the content learned. Based on the Levels of Processing theory, what result may occur?

• Student A will remember better because colors stimulate the brain

• Both students will have the same memory results

• Student B will remember better because they process information at a deeper level

• Student A will remember better because visual methods are always more effective

A researcher found that students remember better when the learning environment is similar to the exam environment. This phenomenon is related to which psychological concept, and how can students apply this to improve their exam results?

• Context-dependent effect; students should review in conditions similar to the exam room, such as sitting quietly, without music

• Zeigarnik effect; students should leave lessons unfinished for the brain to continue processing

• Halo effect; students should create a good impression on the teacher

• Placebo effect; students just need to believe in their abilities

Consider two learning strategies: Strategy X is rereading the material multiple times, and Strategy Y is practicing retrieval through small quizzes. Based on scientific evidence about memory, which of the following assessments is the most accurate?

• Strategy X is more effective because repeated exposure to the material helps reinforce memory

• Strategy Y is more effective because the act of retrieving information enhances long-term retention compared to passive rereading

• Both strategies are equally effective in the long term

• Strategy X is more effective because it reduces psychological pressure on students
