Level of analysis refer to the views of ourselves that reside at different levels of conscious awareness. Level of analysis also refers to the specific focus of study chosen from a graded or nested sequence of possible foci. An individual-level analysis examines specific individuals in the group, a group-level analysis focuses on the group as a unit, and an organized level examines the individual nested in the group, which is, in turn, nested in the organizational context.

Levels-of-processing framework postulates that memory does not comprise three (3) or even any specific number of separate stores but rather varies along a continuous dimension in terms of depth of encoding.
