Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Amy was scanning her own memory for various mystery book authors, which falls under internal search. She was not actively seeking information from external sources or conducting a purchase task, so options C and D can be ruled out. Option E is not relevant to the scenario as Amy already had an idea of what she wanted to purchase, and option A doesn't fully capture the nature of what Amy was doing.
