When your attention is focused during encoding, you are more likely to encode the correct source information, reducing the likelihood of source monitoring errors. A) Rehearsal may help in remembering what needs to be done, but it does not necessarily ensure correct source attribution. B) Adequate practice may improve performance but does not specifically address source monitoring errors. D) Thinking about what you are going to do may help in planning but does not necessarily improve source monitoring.
