Begin by understanding the context of the problem, which is about memory models in psychology. The question is asking which model assumes that the duration of memory retention depends on the stage of memory storage.
Familiarize yourself with the key memory models mentioned: the information-processing model, the parallel distributed processing model, and the levels-of-processing model.
The information-processing model is based on the idea that memory involves a sequence of stages, including sensory memory, short-term memory, and long-term memory. This model suggests that the duration of memory retention is linked to these stages.
The parallel distributed processing model, on the other hand, focuses on the idea that memory processes occur simultaneously across a network of neural connections, rather than in distinct stages.
The levels-of-processing model posits that memory retention is related to the depth of processing, with deeper, more meaningful processing leading to better retention, rather than the stage of memory storage.
