Which statement correctly contrasts simultaneous and successive processing in the PASS model?

ABoth simultaneous and successive only handle visual material
BSimultaneous processes information serially, successive grasps relationships at once
CBoth simultaneous and successive process the same information identically
DSimultaneous grasps relationships among parts at once, successive processes information serially
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Simultaneous grasps relationships among parts at once, successive processes information serially
1. The PASS model splits coding into simultaneous and successive processing. 2. Simultaneous processing grasps relationships between figures at once. 3. Raven's Progressive Matrices is given as an example of simultaneous processing. 4. Successive processing handles information serially, where one item leads to recall of another. 5. Learning digits, alphabets and multiplication tables exemplifies successive processing. 6. Distractor 2 swaps the two processing modes. 7. Hence simultaneous grasps relationships at once while successive handles information serially. _Source: NCERT Class 12 Psychology Ch 1 "Variations in Psychological Attributes", p. 9, PASS Model of Intelligence_
