Participants in one study recalled words better when they had been asked first whether or not the word described them (rather than, for example, if the word had been printed in large letters). Researchers interpret this to mean that
A. the participants had to think about the word more when asked if it described them.
B. the self description questions generated more interest for the participants than the other questions.
C. the self description questions generated a stronger emotional reaction for the participants than the other questions.
D. the participants processed the information for the self description questions through a self schema.
Question 2
One study of the self-schema presented students with 40 questions for which they pressed yes or no. Researchers found that participants were more likely to remember the information when
A. the words had the ability to generate emotions.
B. participants were asked about a rhyme.
C. a self-referent question was difficult to answer.
D. the question was processed about the participants themselves.
