We look up a number in the phone book, push the book away, and then begin to dial the number. Why do we discourage an interruption during this process?

Respuesta :

Answer:

A:  information lasts only 15-25 seconds in short-term memory.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this usually occurs due to the fact that information lasts only 15-25 seconds in short-term memory. Information in short-term memory tends to decay very quickly if it is not constantly received, and tends to last even less if there are interruptions during this period of time.
