Better reasoners are able to quickly and accurately identify relationships between the terms in an analogy (mapping), draw conclusions based on those relationships (inference), and apply those conclusions to the analogy (application). However, encoding, which involves storing and retrieving information from memory, may take longer for better reasoners because they may have more information to sort through and consider. Therefore, the answer is C) encoding.
