Akiko studies half of the countries of Europe, but not the other half.When tested on her knowledge of European countries, Akiko is likely to show:
A)mood congruence; she will remember the countries that she studied when she was in a good mood.
B)levels of processing; she will remember the countries that she studied using perceptual priming.
C)maintenance rehearsal; she will remember those countries that she is keeping in working memory.
D)part-set cueing; she will remember those countries she studied well, but will retrieve the remaining half worse than if she had not studied.

Question

This scenario describes the part-set cueing effect, where remembering a subset of information (in this case, the half of European countries that Akiko studied) can make it harder to remember the information that was not studied. This is a common memory phenomenon that occurs when remembering a subset of items creates retrieval cues that interfere with the recall of the remaining items. Therefore, Akiko is likely to remember the countries she studied well, but struggle to remember the countries she did not study.
