Objective: Violations of academic integrity are still common, and their incidence tends to increase in line with the rise of publications on professionalism. This study aims to investigate the relationship between self-regulated learning, cognitive function, and stress levels on the academic integrity of medical students. Methods: Using…

The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on education and lifelong learning is a topic of significant importance as AI continues to change numerous sectors. This paper aims to critically examine AI's profound effect in these domains. The present research explores the ethical dilemmas and pedagogical approaches relevant to incorporating…

The ability to stand back from oneself and reflect on one's behavior and thought processes has long been considered crucial to the therapy process. Many therapies explicitly require patients to monitor their behaviors and thoughts. This self-monitoring requires considerable metacognitive skill on the part of the patient. Some therapies for the…

Five structured components considered to be essential features of planning behavior are posited in this report. The cognitive issues of planning are assigned to the broader domain of representational thinking. Discussion then focuses on two of the planning components that involve a shift to metacognitive skills: (1) development of standards or…

The present study was designed to assess kindergarten, second-, and fourth-graders' knowledge of two aspects of metamemory, the effect of list length and the effect of study time, and to relate this knowledge to the children's performance on recall tasks. One hundred and eight elementary school children, 36 from each grade level, were shown…

This paper examines effective study strategies and how they can be used to enhance learning among African American college and university students, focusing on the importance of memory and metacognition in learning. The paper also explores factors that affect the use of these strategies and discusses how to overcome them. Effective study…

This paper examined the connection between learners' metacognitive processes and their construction of personal meanings. Some concepts of the metacognitive processes such as strategy selection, planning, progress monitoring, and evaluation are reviewed. Noting that in spite of a lack of research literature in direct relation to the specific area…

A study examined whether the need for feedback varied with students' metacognitive knowledge monitoring abilities. Subjects were 59 fifth-grade students--35 females and 24 males. Students were given a list of 25 words with instructions to check off whether they knew or did not know each of the words; a multiple choice vocabulary test containing…

Research was conducted into the metacognitive awareness of electronics workers in completing job reading tasks. The study examined how successful adult readers make decisions about why, when, and how to use reading on the job. It also identified unique aspects of the job reading context that both require workers to control their reading…

There is little agreement about how the ability to read route maps initially emerges and about how it should be stimulated by early childhood educators. This study assessed the route map reading behavior of young children and the basic skills that might contribute to that behavior. In individual videotaped sessions, 120 four, five, and six year…

To learn about teachers' conceptualization of memory strategy use, memory knowledge, and developmental changes in these skills, investigators administered a questionnaire to 59 teachers of children in kindergarten through sixth grades. The questionnaire included sections on strategy use, metamemory skills, and memory monitoring and control…

Implications of research into human ability and metacognition for adaptive instruction are examined. Traditionally, adaptive instruction has largely involved the adaptation of instruction to suit the cognitive idiosyncrasies of individual learners. Through the development of learning strategies and metacognitive abilities to manage them, this…

This paper discusses what metacognitive and cognitive actions elementary students make when they tackle mathematics problems. Findings are presented from the first 30 multimethod interviews conducted with Australian elementary mathematics students. Students used a set of specially designed metacognitive and cognitive action cards to stimulate…

Concept mapping is a technique for visually representing the structure of information, concepts, and the relationships between them. Concept maps are useful tools that help students learn about how they structure knowledge while supporting the process of knowledge construction or metaknowledge. This paper discusses the effect of concept mapping…

The poorer performance of older people in laboratory tests of episodic memory may result from failures or deficiencies in metamemory processes, e.g., failure to monitor task or individual item difficulty. To study age differences in prediction of memory performance, an associative matching task was used to compare young (N=20) and older (N=20)…
