Post by: SpiderX on Feb 2, 2015
Telo convinces a woman he finds attractive to give him her telephone number. Unfortunately, the number is ten digits long with the area code, and Telo cannot find a place to write it down. As he looks for a pen and paper, what can Telo do to help himself remember the number?
   a.   Nothing will help because 10 digits are beyond the capacity of short-term memory.
   b.   Thinking of something else will help Telo.
   c.   “Chunking” the numbers into smaller units will help Telo.
   d.   Telo should try to process the memory in parallel.
