McElvany, Nele; Artelt, Cordula – Learning and Instruction, 2009
Drawing on knowledge about the development of reading comprehension, and empirical insights into the effects of training on students' learning strategies and reading-related metacognition, we developed a parent-child reading program for implementation in the home environment. The results of this first quasi-experimental evaluation study indicate…

Hong, Eunsook; Peng, Yun – Learning and Instruction, 2008
The effect of Chinese students' perceived test value on test performance was examined with motivational and metacognitive regulation during test preparation as mediating constructs. Participants were 7th (N = 326) and 11th graders (N = 391) in China. Two path models were examined. Students' perceived test value had a significant direct effect on…

Veenman, Marcel V. J.; And Others – Learning and Instruction, 1997
The generality and domain-specificity of the metacognitive skills students bring to new situations were studied with 14 Dutch college freshmen in three simulations. Results support the generality of novice metacognitive skills across domains, and suggest that metacognitive skillfulness is partly independent of intelligence. (SLD)

Torrance, Mark; Fidalgo, Raquel; Garcia, Jesus-Nicasio – Learning and Instruction, 2007
Seventy-one normally functioning Spanish sixth-grade students participated in classroom-based training in cognitive strategies for preplanning and substantive revision of expository text. Short essays completed by these students pre-intervention, post-intervention, and after a 12 week delay were compared with those of an ordinary-curriculum…

Efklides, Anastasia; Petkaki, Chryssoula – Learning and Instruction, 2005
This study investigated the relations of induced mood with mathematical ability and self-concept in maths as well as the effect of induced mood on maths performance and on metacognitive experiences (ME). Ninety students, out of 246, of the 5th grade--45 students of low and 45 of high maths ability--were distributed into three equal in number…

Berry, John; Sahlberg, Pasi – Learning and Instruction, 1996
A research project using an instrument designed to allow teachers to investigate their students' ideas about learning found that the ideas of 193 English and Finnish adolescents about learning were varied, without clear understanding of how they learned. Finnish students seemed to depend more on their teachers than did English students. (SLD)

Chambres, Patrick – Learning and Instruction, 1993
In the current article, effects of socially induced metacognitive activities on performance of 60 French elementary and secondary school students (grades 3 through 9) were studied. Performance of low-achievement students was higher in a social comparison situation than an ordinary academic situation. A strong contingent relationship between social…

Veenman, Marcel V. J.; Wilhelm, Pascal; Beishuizen, Jos J. – Learning and Instruction, 2004
The first objective of this study was to establish to what extent metacognitive skill development is associated with intelligence. As a second objective, the generality vs. domain-specificity of maturing metacognitive skills was investigated. Both issues have major implications for the training and transferability of metacognitive skills.…

Volet, Simone E. – Learning and Instruction, 1991
Results from an experiment with 28 experimental and 28 matched control college students taking a 13-week computer science course support the potential of modeling and coaching students in metacognitive strategies to enhance learning. The instructional method had significant long-term and short-term effects on cognitive and affective learning…
