Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Elaborative rehearsal involves creating meaningful associations between new information and existing knowledge, which is what Chase is doing by creating visual images and stories. Encoding specificity refers to the idea that the context in which information is learned can influence its retrieval. Metamemory refers to the awareness and control of one's own memory processes. Chunking involves grouping information into smaller, more manageable units. None of these techniques fully describe what Chase is doing.
