who came up with the levels of processing model
craik and lockhart
what does the level of processing model seek to explain
what we do with information rather than how it is stored
in order for information to be transferred to ltm according to the level of processing model what does it have to be
considered
understood
has meaning (past memories)
what is the term used to describe how much the information is considered
depth of processing
what happens the deeper the information is processed
the longer the memory trace will last
what is the structural level

what is the shallow processing level
structural
what does the phonetic level mean
processing words and sounds
what does the semantic level of processing mean
considering the actual meaning of words

according to the level of processing model what is more important than repetition
the meaning of the information
practical example of the semantic level of processing
a gymnastics coach explains to a performer why it is important to tuck in a somersault to ensure greater rotation
