In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
- Statement I: In explicit long-term memory, bits of information may be stored and interrelated in terms of propositional networks.
- Statement II: Implicit long-term memories are out-of-awareness memories that cannot affect thinking and behaviour.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are correct
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
CStatement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect ✓ Correct
DStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
Correct answer: (C) Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect — Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect, so the answer is Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation
★Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect, so the answer is Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
★Explicit memory holds information we can consciously recall.
★This information can be stored and linked in propositional networks, so statement I is correct.
★Implicit memory holds information stored and used without conscious awareness.
★Even though it is out of awareness, it does affect thinking and behaviour.
★So the claim that it cannot affect thinking and behaviour is wrong, making statement II incorrect.
★Therefore statement I is correct while statement II is incorrect.
