Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The information about what you had for lunch an hour ago is not in your conscious awareness at the moment, which rules out A. It's unlikely to be in your unconscious level either, which refers to things that are deeply repressed and unavailable to conscious awareness. Postconscious level is not a recognized term in psychology. D is the best option because it refers to the preconscious level, which includes memories and other information that can easily be brought to mind with minimal effort, such as recalling what you had for lunch an hour ago.
