According to this model, whether people remember an item for a few seconds or a lifetime depends on how deeply they process the information.

A) Atkinson-Shiffrin model
B) information-processing approach
C) levels-of-processing model
D) Endel and Tulving model

Levels-of-processing Model

A theory suggesting that the depth of mental processing affects memory recall, with deeper processing resulting in longer-lasting memory.

Information-processing Approach

A view in cognitive psychology that likens the mind to a computer in terms of how information is encoded, stored, and retrieved.

Atkinson-Shiffrin Model

A theory of human memory that was proposed in the 1960s, suggesting that memory consists of three main components: sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory.
