what does kevin madore say about the relationship between media multitasking and memory problems?
a media multitasking definitely causes memory problems.
b the relationship between media multitasking and memory problems is correlational.
c people with good attention are more likely to be heavy media multitaskers.
d there is no connection between media multitasking and memory problems.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Saying "definitely causes" is too absolute. Research on such relationships often shows correlation, not definite causation.
• Option B: In studies, the relationship between media multitasking and memory problems is often found to be correlational (meaning they are related but one doesn't necessarily cause the other directly), which aligns with what Kevin Madore would likely state.
• Option C: Typically, heavy media multitaskers are associated with attention difficulties, not good attention, so this is incorrect.
• Option D: There is evidence of a relationship (correlational), so saying no connection is wrong.

Answer:

B. The relationship between media multitasking and memory problems is correlational.
