Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Semantic networks are a form of knowledge representation that organizes information into categories and concepts, showing how these are interconnected. They are particularly useful in explaining how information is interconnected into a vast network of concepts, often referred to as memory nodes or neural circuits. However, the concept of clustering information into coherent wholes is more accurately described by the term "schemas," which are structured clusters of concepts that help in understanding and processing information. Semantic networks, while they can represent schemas, are not specifically aimed at explaining the clustering of information into these coherent wholes, making option A the correct choice.
