Craik and colleagues proposed that structural encoding, which involves the shallow processing of the physical and sensory features of a stimulus, is a less deep level of processing compared to phonemic (sound-based) and semantic (meaning-based) encoding. This hierarchy suggests that as processing moves from structural to semantic, it becomes deeper and more likely to facilitate long-term memory retention.
