Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that encoding in psychology refers to the process of converting sensory input into a form that can be stored in memory.
Recognize that there are different levels of processing when encoding information: shallow and deep processing.
Shallow processing involves encoding based on surface features such as the structure or appearance of words, like their font or sound.
Deep processing involves encoding based on meaning, such as semantic encoding, which relates to the meaning of the words.
Therefore, the term that refers to encoding information on a basic level based on the structure or appearance of words is 'shallow processing'.
