Cognition
In the triarchic theory of intelligence:
Information processing in cognition can be viewed in terms of three different kinds of components.
metacomponents,
performance components;
knowledge-acquisition components
__ are higher order executive processes (i.e., metacongition) used to plan, monitor and evaluate problem solving.
Metacomponents
__ are lower-order processes used for implementing the commands of the metacomponents.
Performance Components
__ are the processes used for learning how to solve the problems in the first place.
Knowledge-acquisition components
