Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Promiscuous encoding refers to the process of encoding every event experienced, allowing for later decisions about the usefulness of information. This approach does not selectively encode based on the nature of the event (positive, negative, or neutral) but rather captures a broad spectrum of experiences for future processing and decision-making.
