Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question specifies that the researchers gave participants a memory test, implying that the participants had to retrieve the previously encoded information. Therefore, the most relevant choice is measuring neural activity during retrieval, which is option D. The other choices, such as erasing memories or comparing neural activity across genders, are not relevant to evaluating successful memory functioning. Measuring neural activity for elaborated items may be useful but is not as directly related to evaluating memory function as measuring activity during retrieval.
