The information in terms of sound is maintained in

  • A.Semantic code
  • B.Acoustic code
  • C.Iconic code
  • D.Information code

Answer: B

Sound information is maintained in the acoustic code, which is the way the short-term memory stores items by their sound, as the mistakes between letters that sound alike show. The semantic code stores information by meaning, the iconic code holds visual images for a very short time, and 'information code' is not a standard term. Evidence for it comes from short-term memory errors, in which people confuse letters such as B, D and P that sound alike, even when the letters were seen and not heard, as shown by Conrad's work. The answer is the acoustic code.
