Explanation:

What is the difference between elaborative rehearsal and maintenance rehearsal in terms of (a) the procedures associated with each type of rehearsal and (b) their effectiveness for creating long-term memories

Elaborative rehearsal is connecting what you're trying to know to something you already know; is much effective for creating long-term memories ; involves thinking the meaning, and making a connection to prior knowledge

Maintenance rehearsal simply means holding something in your memory by repeating it over and over rather than connecting it to something meaningful;  involves large repetition without connection to prior knowledge;not very effective for creating long-term memories and involves shallow processing with little attention to meaning
