According to the transfer-appropriate processing theory discussed in the textbook, what should happen to her performance?
- AIt would increase because the retrieval of information is the same as how it was encoded.
- BIt would decrease because encoding sound with the memory of the rhythm is beneficial.
- CIt would increase because she now doesn't have to process extra auditory information.
- DIt would not affect Helga's performance because all she needs to do is focus on hitting corresponding notes, not listening to the music.
