The answer is the first one: semantic networks.

Explanation for each option:

  • Semantic networks: This is the correct answer. Semantic networks are mental representations of clusters of interconnected information. They are used to model how concepts are related in the mind, often represented as nodes (concepts) and links (relationships) in a network.

  • Short-term: This is incorrect. Short-term memory refers to the temporary storage of information for a brief period, typically seconds to minutes, and does not specifically describe interconnected clusters of information.

  • Working: This is incorrect. Working memory is a cognitive system responsible for temporarily holding information available for processing. It is involved in reasoning and decision-making but does not specifically refer to interconnected clusters of information.

  • Long-term: This is incorrect. Long-term memory refers to the storage of information over extended periods, from hours to a lifetime, but it does not specifically describe the interconnected nature of information as semantic networks do.

In summary, semantic networks are the mental representations of clusters of interconnected information.
