In 1972, Fergus I. M. Craik and Robert S. Lockhart revolutionised cognitive psychology with their Levels of Processing framework, proposing that memory retention depends not on how long information is rehearsed, but on how deeply it is processed. Their research demonstrated that when individuals engage with material in a meaningful way, analysing its significance, relating it to prior knowledge, and reflecting on its implications, they form stronger, more enduring memories. This insight transcends laboratory settings: it empowers individuals to learn more effectively, boosting confidence, creativity, and lifelong curiosity. On a broader scale, encouraging deep learning and reflection fosters more thoughtful, empathetic, and mentally resilient societies. By highlighting the power of meaningful engagement with our experiences, Craik and Lockhart’s work continues to inspire both personal wellbeing and collective intellectual health. Research such as this, highlights the value of deeper and more meaningful engagement with life. This was the central concern of Jesus Christ, who’s expressed manifesto was, “I have come that they [humanity] may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10). He Himself is the way to the fulfilment of this promise, and by placing our faith in Him, we are spiritually transformed and the journey to full psychological health can properly begin.
