In this paper we explored the relationship between metacognitive statements and learning gains with students’ typed and spoken interactions with an intelligent tutoring system, called AutoTutor. Analyses revealed that students who entered their contributions via speech showed a significantly higher proportion of metacognitive statements (e.g., I’m not following, I understand). There was a signi...

Growing recognition of the importance of understanding metacognitive behaviour as it occurs in everyday learning situations has prompted an expansion of the methodological approaches used to examine metacognition. This becomes especially pertinent when examining the process of metacognitive change, where 'on-line' observational approaches able to capture metacognitive performance as it occurs d...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that individuals with schizophrenia exhibit higher levels of unhelpful metacognitive beliefs than healthy controls, but no studies have explored metacognitive beliefs in early psychosis. AIMS We examined i) differences in levels of unhelpful metacognitive beliefs between psychosis spectrum disorders, and healthy controls, and ii) to what extent demograph...

Both worry and metacognitive beliefs have been found to be related to the development of anxiety, but metacognitive theory (Wells and Matthews, 1994; Wells, 2009) suggest that metacognitive beliefs may play a more prominent role. The aim of the present prospective study was to examine whether worry, metacognitive beliefs or the interaction between worry and metacognitive beliefs, were the best ...

worry is considered as one of the shared cognitive components in generalized anxiety disorder (gad) and obsessive compulsive disorder (ocd). the study of cognitive factors influencing worry simultaneously has important implications for psychopathology. these factors have been discussed separately in different theoretical models. the aim of the present study was to investigate the simple and mul...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Obsessive-compulsive (OC) patients typically display reduced metacognitive confidence, but findings regarding the scope of this phenomenon and factors that mediate it have been inconsistent. This study aimed to further the understanding of reduced metacognitive confidence in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) by exploring the relationship between metacognitive process...

This study aims to analyse the difference of metacognitive awareness of treatment (using Blended Project Based Learning) and control class. This is a quasi-experimental research with Non-equivalent Control Group Design. This research was conducted at Department of Biology Education, University of Muhammadiyah Malang, in the first semester of the academic year 2014/2015. Metacognitive awareness ...

The success of a learning environment can be measured in terms of improvement in learner performances as well as positive learner engagement in metacognitive traits. A large body of educational technology literature establishes a positive correlation between the application of learning technologies and learner performances. In addressing the other aspect of success, this chapter presents a stud...
