Discussion
In which of the following forms is information coded in LTM?
1. Semantically
2. Acoustically
3. Chunks
4. Procedurally
Answer: A
The key gives Only 1 and 2, semantic and acoustic coding. Information in long-term memory is coded mainly by meaning (semantically), and acoustic coding is also found there, though less. Chunks are a way of grouping items in short-term memory and not a form of coding, so options that include 3 are wrong. Procedural memory is a kind of long-term memory, but the key does not count it as a form of coding.
Long-term memory is mainly coded semantically, which is by meaning, but an acoustic trace is also found, so these two make up the key.
