The correct answer is: "semantic encoding".

In general, encoding techniques are applied in order to elaborate on the information perceived by our senses, seeking to appropiately store it in our longer lasting memory units and to optimize subsequent retrieval.

Semantic encoding consists on relating certain concepts to a context in order to remember them better afterwards, using mechanisms such as chunking or mnemonics. This is the case in the research described where, in order to remember a list of objects, participants connect them to a house context.

Answer:

groupthink    

Explanation:

Asterisk Inc. decided to change some of its policies. Jensen, a team manager, conducted a meeting to inform his team about the management's decision. During the meeting, the majority of Jensen's team members were in favor of the policies except Sandy. As a result, Sandy decided not to voice her concerns about the policy changes fearing negative consequences. This scenario illustrates the concept of <u>groupthink</u>.

Groupthink is based on the desire not to upset the balance/harmony of a group of people thinking about a situation, it is a phenomenon whereby a group of individuals reach a premature consensus on an issue without critical reasoning or evaluation of the consequences or alternatives in a bid to avoid dissenting views and opinion. It is a situation whereby harmony in a group is promoted more than critical and objective analysis of issues.
