AP Psychology
Unit 5 – Cognitive Psychology
Topic 5.3
How does the dual coding theory reflect principles from both cognitive psychology and semiotics?
It proposes that humans have two separate systems for processing information—abstract and concrete.
It suggests that visual and verbal information are processed separately and simultaneously, enhancing memory storage.
It asserts that we store information in two ways—consciously and subconsciously.
It claims that our brain codes information into either images or words, but not both at once.
