   		Creating an acronym where letters stand for words
   		Writing something down on a list or note
   		Connecting a word to an image
   		Repeating a word or name to yourself

Answer 1

Not an example of an “internal” technique to improve memory :-

Writing something down on a list or a note.

Strategies to improve "internal memory" involves re-teaching the brain to retain information using different mental strategies which includes :-

• Repeating the same things (words/names) again and again to memorize it.
• Face name associations with mental visualisation- Connecting words to an image.
• Use of mnemonics - creating an acronym where letter stands for words is helpful in remembering.

Writing something down on a list or note is not an internal technique to improve memory.

Since options a, c, d are true for "internal memorymemory" .

Thus the false statement is (b) Writing something down on a list or not. And is the correct answer.
