Rosenzweig, Carly; Krawec, Jennifer; Montague, Marjorie – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2011
The purpose of the study was to investigate the metacognitive abilities of students with LD as they engage in math problem solving and to determine processing differences between these students and their low- and average-achieving peers (n = 73). Students thought out loud as they solved three math problems of increasing difficulty. Protocols were…

Greene, Jeffrey Alan; Azevedo, Roger – Contemporary Educational Psychology, 2009
In this study, we used think-aloud verbal protocols to examine how various macro-level processes of self-regulated learning (SRL; e.g., planning, monitoring, strategy use, handling of task difficulty and demands) were associated with the acquisition of a sophisticated mental model of a complex biological system. Numerous studies examine how…
