- 1What's low ecological validity?Low ecological validity is the findings from research study's which can be adapted to real-life settings.
- 2What's Structural processing?Is thinking about the physical appearance of a word.
e.g. Highlighting because it's bold and stands out. - 3What's Phonetic processing?Thinking about the sound of the word.
e.g. words that rhyme.
- 4What's Semantic processing?Thinking about the meaning of the word.

e.g.
Study done by Craik and Lockhart - 6What's a practical application?This is when you say how the study could improve.
e.g.
Instead of just reading something over and over. - 7What's inference?Things that we learn that make it difficult to recall other information that we have learnt.
- 8What's proactive?The Old information affecting new info.

- 12What's Anterograde Amnesia?Is being unable to learn new info after suffering brain damage.

- 15What's Storage?Holding info in the memory system
- 16What's Retrieval?Recovering info from storage
