Skylar J. Laursen; Dorina Sluka; Chris M. Fiacconi – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Previous literature suggests learners can adjust their encoding strategies to match the demands of the expected test format. However, it is unclear whether other forms of metacognitive control, namely, study time allocation and restudy selection, are also sensitive to expected test format. Across four experiments we examined whether learners…

Yue Yin; Tian Fan; Wenbo Zhao; Jun Zheng; Xiao Hu; Ningxin Su; Chunliang Yang; Liang Luo – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Employment of appropriate study strategies is crucial for academic success. Previous findings on whether use of specific strategies is related to academic performance in real educational settings were inconsistent, and their participant samples were largely restricted to undergraduate students. The current study recruited a large sample (i.e.,…

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…

Megan N. Imundo; Inez Zung; Mary C. Whatley; Steven C. Pan – Metacognition and Learning, 2025
We investigated the benefits of two ways to use flashcards to perform retrieval practice: alone versus with a partner. In three experiments, undergraduate students learned word-definition pairs using flashcards alone (Individual condition) or with another student (Paired condition). Participants then made global judgments of learning (gJOLs;…
