Elementary school students in the U.S. are often taught to use the very familiar word "HOMES" as a cue for remembering the names of the Great Lakes (each letter in "HOMES" provides a first-letter cue for one of the lakes: Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, Superior). This memory procedure usually works better than repeating the names over and over. The use of this familiar word provides an example of a. implicit memory. b. a self-reference effect. c. elaborative rehearsal. d. repetition priming.

Answer :

Answer:

c. elaborative rehearsal

Explanation:

Elaborative rehearsal refers to a memory technique in which a person links the concept that they want to memorize with some knowledge that they have from their own life, as opposed to simply memorizing a word through constant repetition. By connecting the word to something that they are already familiar with, students are more likely to remember the term.
