Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Deep processing involves giving meaning to information by associating it with prior knowledge, putting words in context, and creating associations between pieces of information. This helps to encode information more fully and make it easier to retrieve later. Repeating information by rote (A) may help with short-term memory but is not effective for long-term retention. Staying away from confusing strategies (B) is not necessarily helpful for encoding information more fully. Taking dietary memory enhancements (C) has not been proven to be effective and may even have negative side effects.
