Metamemory and Motivation: A Comparison of Strategy Use and Performance in German and American Children.

Schneider, Wolfgang; And Others

Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, v17 n3 p315-16 Sep 1986

Interrelationships among metamemory, intelligence, attributional beliefs, self-concept, and strategy use were investigated in 102 German and 91 American children. Some were trained to use a cluster-rehearsal strategy on a Sort Recall task. Post-training assessments tested maintenance, near-transfer, and task-related metamemorial knowledge. (Author/LHW)
