Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chunking is a strategy in which a person combines small pieces of information into larger, more meaningful units or chunks. This can improve memory capacity, allowing Nick to remember more than just seven letters. The central executive refers to the control center of working memory, not a specific strategy for improving memory capacity. Buffering is not a term used in the context of memory capacity, and proactive interference refers to situations in which old memories interfere with the ability to remember new information, rather than strategies for improving memory capacity.
