Stebner, Ferdinand; Schuster, Corinna; Weber, Xenia-Lea; Greiff, Samuel; Leutner, Detlev; Wirth, Joachim – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Metacognitive skills are often considered domain-general, therefore they have the potential to transfer across domains, subjects, and tasks. However, transfer of metacognitive skills seldomly occurs spontaneously. Schuster et al., (2020) showed that training can have beneficial effects on spontaneous near and far transfer of metacognitive skills.…

Kälin, Sonja; Roebers, Claudia M. – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Pronounced developmental progression during the transition to formal schooling can be found in executive functions (EF) and metacognition (MC). However, it is still unclear whether and how EF and MC influence each other during this transition. Previous research with young children suggests that inhibition may be a prerequisite for monitoring…

Elhusseini, Sohayla A.; Tischner, Clair M.; Aspiranti, Kathleen B.; Fedewa, Alicia L. – Metacognition and Learning, 2022
Self-regulation involves the modulation of one's thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in the pursuit of long-term goals. Students who face difficulties with self-regulation may experience substantial deficits in their academic achievement. However, research has pointed to a number of effective instructional strategies and interventions which may be…

Steiner, Martina; van Loon, Mariëtte H.; Bayard, Natalie S.; Roebers, Claudia M. – Metacognition and Learning, 2020
This study investigated elementary school children's development of monitoring and control when learning from texts. Second (N = 138) and fourth (N = 164) graders were tested in the middle (T[subscript 1]) and end (T[subscript 2]) of the school year. The study focused on the cross-sectional and longitudinal development of monitoring and control,…

Compagnoni, Miriam; Karlen, Yves; Maag Merki, Katharina – Metacognition and Learning, 2019
Individuals hold different mindsets encompassing beliefs about trait stability (stable vs. malleable) and goal orientations (performance vs. mastery). These motivational beliefs affect behavioral self-regulation, which is an important predictor of school success and includes both executive functions (EF) and classroom behavioral self-regulation…

Nelson, Lindsey J.; Fyfe, Emily R. – Metacognition and Learning, 2019
Metacognition is central to children's cognitive development. However, there is conflicting evidence about children's ability to accurately monitor their performance and subsequently control their behavior. This is of particular interest for mathematics topics on which children exhibit persistent misconceptions--that is, when children's knowledge…

Lichtinger, Einat; Kaplan, Avi – Metacognition and Learning, 2015
Recent theory and research suggest that self-regulation is not a unitary set of strategies, and that students may employ different types of self-regulation strategies in ways that correspond with different motivational orientations. In this paper, we describe a situated case study approach to investigate the motivational orientation and…

Pillow, Bradford H.; Pearson, RaeAnne M. – Metacognition and Learning, 2015
Two experiments investigated 1st-, 3rd-, and 5th-grade children's and adults' judgments related to the controllability of cognitive activities, including object recognition, inferential reasoning, counting, and pretending. In Experiment 1, fifth-grade children and adults rated transitive inference and interpretation of ambiguous pictures as more…

Huff, Jessica D.; Nietfeld, John L. – Metacognition and Learning, 2009
Current models of self-regulated learning emphasize the pervasive need for metacognitive monitoring skills at all phases of the learning process (Winne and Hadwin in "Studying as self-regulated learning." In D. J. Hacker, J. Dunlosky, & A. C. Graesser (Eds.), "Metacognition in educational theory and practice" (pp. 227-304). Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum,…

Kramarski, Bracha – Metacognition and Learning, 2008
This study investigates algebraic reasoning and self-regulation skills among elementary school teachers who participated in a professional development program either with IMPROVE metacognitive questioning (PD + Meta) or with no metacognitive guidance (PD). Sixty-four Israeli teachers participated in a 3-year program designed to enhance…
