- Levels of Processing
- Craik and Lockhart 1972
- We remember because of how info is processed
- Memory is a by-product of the info processing occurs when attending to info
- Two main types of rehearsal to transfer info into LTM
- Structural = processing information by what it looks like e.g CAPITAL LETTERS
- Shallowest type of processing information because it involves less cognitive effort = not as well remembered
- Phonetic = processing information by what it sounds like e.g RHYMING
- Semantic = processing information by the meaning e.g SAME MEANING AS ANOTHER WORD
- Deepest form of processing information because involves the most cognitive effort = better remembered
- Craik and Lockhart 1972
