task appropriate processing

In the domain of prospective memory, task-appropriate processing refers to the superiority of certain types of learning strategies over others in memory tasks.{{Cite journal |last1=McDaniel |first1=Mark A. |last2=Kearney |first2=Edmund M. |date=1984-07-01 |title=Optimal learning strategies and their spontaneous use: The importance of task-appropriate processing |url=https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/BF03198296 |journal=Memory & Cognition |language=en |volume=12 |issue=4 |pages=361–373 |doi=10.3758/BF03198296 |pmid=6503699 |issn=1532-5946}} Task-appropriate processing appears to be facilitated by the unconscious detection of cues for the appropriate processing strategy.{{Cite journal |last1=Meiser |first1=Thorsten |last2=Schult |first2=Janette C. |date=2007 |title=On the automatic nature of the task-appropriate processing effect in event-based prospective memory |url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/09541440701319068 |journal=European Journal of Cognitive Psychology |language=en |volume=20 |issue=2 |pages=290–311 |doi=10.1080/09541440701319068 |issn=0954-1446|url-access=subscription }} Task-appropriate processing is related to transfer-appropriate processing in that the task-appropriateness of learning strategies influences the effectiveness of recall after learning tasks.{{Cite journal |last1=Abney |first1=Drew H. |last2=McBride |first2=Dawn M. |last3=Petrella |first3=Samantha N. |date=2013-10-01 |title=Interactive effects in transfer-appropriate processing for event-based prospective memory: The roles of effort, ongoing task, and PM cue properties |url=https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13421-013-0324-7 |journal=Memory & Cognition |language=en |volume=41 |issue=7 |pages=1032–1045 |doi=10.3758/s13421-013-0324-7 |pmid=23649838 |issn=1532-5946}}
