Allison J. Jaeger; Logan Fiorella – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Prior research suggests most students do not glean valid cues from provided visuals, resulting in reduced metacomprehension accuracy. Across 4 experiments, we explored how the presence of instructional visuals affects students' metacomprehension accuracy and cue-use for different types of metacognitive judgments. Undergraduates read texts on…

Ezgi Melisa Yüksel; C. Shawn Green; Haley A. Vlach – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
When students are left to choose their own approaches to studying, they frequently engage in ineffective learning strategies, such as rereading textbooks or cramming. Given this natural tendency amongst students, there has been significant interest in how to increase the use of more effective methods of studying. Efforts to-date have typically…

Yu, Shi; Zhang, Fengjiao; Nunes, Ludmila D. – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
Metamotivational knowledge is a burgeoning area of study. It refers to people's knowledge about motivation, and it has been shown to contribute to motivation and behavioral outcomes. The current study bridges metamotivational knowledge with self-determination theory (SDT), one of the most prominent theories of academic motivation. SDT proposes…

Li, Xiaomiao; Lindsay, Brittany L.; Szeto, Andrew C. H.; Dobson, Keith S. – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
The Dunning-Kruger (DK) effect is a form of meta-ignorance of knowledge (Kruger & Dunning, "Journal of Personality and Social Psychology," 77(6), 121-1134, 1999) that has not been explored regarding mental illness public stigma. The current study examined the DK effect in this field by comparing participants' actual stigma (measured…

Witherby, Amber E.; Carpenter, Shana K.; Smith, Andrew M. – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
Prior knowledge is often strongly related to students' learning. In the present research, we explored the relationship between prior knowledge and the accuracy of students' predictive monitoring judgments (judgments of learning; JOLs) and postdictive monitoring judgments (confidence judgments). In four experiments, students completed prior…

Gutierrez de Blume, Antonio P.; Montoya Londoño, Diana Marcela; Daset, Lilián; Cuadro, Ariel; Molina Delgado, Mauricio; Morán Núñez, Olivia; García de la Cadena, Claudia; Beltrán Navarro, María Beatríz; Arias Trejo, Natalia; Ramirez Balmaceda, Ana; Jiménez Rodríguez, Virginia; Puente Ferreras, Aníbal; Urquijo, Sebastián; Arias, Walter Lizandro; Rivera, Laura Inés; Schulmeyer, Marion; Rivera-Sanchez, Jesus – Metacognition and Learning, 2023
A deeper understanding of what factors influence metacognition has never become more pressing than in today's digital era, in which information flows constantly and quickly. To this end, the present study explored the role of culture in mediating how individuals experience metacognitive phenomena. For this purpose, the International Group on…

Mevarech, Zemira R.; Paz-Baruch, Nurit – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
The purpose of the present study was to explore the extent to which students with different levels of creativity also differ in their implementation of metacognitive and meta-creative processes. Participants included 221 students in Grades 4, 5, and 6 (104 girls, 117 boys; mean age = 10.5; SD = 0.84). Creativity was assessed using the Unusual Uses…

Naujoks, Nick; Harder, Bettina; Händel, Marion – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Two studies investigated the testing effects on performance and on metacognitive judgment accuracy in authentic learning settings. Across two educational psychology courses, undergraduate students had the opportunity to voluntarily participate in four different practice tests during the term--without feedback in Study 1 (N = 201 students) or with…

Teng, Mark Feng; Qin, Chenghai; Wang, Chuang – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
This empirical study serves two purposes. The first purpose is to validate a newly developed instrument, the Metacognitive Academic Writing Strategies Questionnaire (MAWSQ), which represents the multifaceted structure of metacognition in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) academic writing setting. The second purpose is to delineate the…

Melzner, Nadine; Dresel, Markus; Kollar, Ingo – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
To be able to collaborate effectively and efficiently has been described as a complex and crucial twenty-first century skill. During collaboration, however, a variety of problems may emerge that require groups to engage in effective regulation processes, which is a complex task in itself. Up to now, little is known about (a) what types of…

Vosniadou, Stella; Darmawan, Igusti; Lawson, Michael J.; Van Deur, Penny; Jeffries, David; Wyra, Mirella – Metacognition and Learning, 2021
The research investigated relationships amongst beliefs about the self-regulation of learning (SRL), study strategies and academic performance in 366 pre-service teachers. A Beliefs about Learning and Teaching (BALT) Questionnaire was used to examine beliefs that were both consistent and inconsistent with SRL. The final model emerging from the…

Nederhand, Marloes L.; Tabbers, Huib K.; De Bruin, Anique B. H.; Rikers, Remy M. J. P. – Metacognition and Learning, 2021
When compared to high performers, low performers generally have more difficulty to accurately estimate their own performance. This has been explained by low performers being both unskilled and unaware about their performance. However, Miller and Geraci "Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition," 37(2), 502-506,…

Nederhand, Marloes L.; Tabbers, Huib K.; Jongerling, Joran; Rikers, Remy M. J. P. – Metacognition and Learning, 2020
Grades provide students with information about their level of performance. However, grades may also make students more aware of how well they have estimated their performance, their so-called calibration accuracy. This longitudinal quasi-experimental study, set in secondary education, examined how to increase students' awareness of the accuracy of…

Burin, Debora I.; Gonzalez, Federico Martin; Barreyro, Juan Pablo; Injoque-Ricle, Irene – Metacognition and Learning, 2020
This study examined the contribution of self-reported metacognitive regulation of reading to expository digital text comprehension in an e-learning environment, completed at home, instead of a class or lab. Two hundred and nineteen college students read and answered questions about two low previous knowledge hypertexts, and reported metacognitive…

Händel, Marion; de Bruin, Anique B. H.; Dresel, Markus – Metacognition and Learning, 2020
Extensive research has been conducted to understand how accurately students monitor their studying and performance via metacognitive judgments. Moreover, the bases of students' metacognitive judgments are of interest. While previous results are quite consistent regarding the importance of performance for the accuracy of metacognitive judgments,…
