Answer 1

Mostly Through memory, sometimes comprehension & decision making

Question 2

what are the methods of studying metacognition

Answer 2

-Judgement & test
-questionaries
-behavioral methodship
-order of study, termination of study, reaction time

Question 3

how memory works (order)

Answer 3

Encoding –> storage —> retrieval

Question 4

ease of learning (EOL)

Answer 4

How easy or difficult it will be to learn something

Question 5

Judgement of learning (JOL)

Answer 5

Likelihood of remembering recently studied items on an upcoming test

Question 6

feeling of knowing

Answer 6

likelihood of recognizing a currently unrecallable answer on an upcoming test

Question 7

recall

Answer 7

Retrieving memory without cues, or with an open ended prompt
-essay question

Question 8

Recognition

Answer 8

Identifying correct information after seeing a prompt or cue
-Multiple choice questions

Question 9

source monitoring judgements

Answer 9

Judgment that pertain to the source of a particular memory

Question 10

Retrospective confidence judgements

Answer 10

Judgments of the likelihood that a response on a test is correct

Question 11

ease of learning (example)

Answer 11

how difficult will it be to learn these word pairs by the test

Question 12

judgements of learning (example)

Answer 12

how many word pairs out of 15 do you think you will recall

Question 13

feeling of knowing (example)

Answer 13

Will you recognize this word pair on a multiple-choice test?

Question 14

retrospective confidence (example )

Answer 14

How confident are you that your answer is correct on a multiple choice problem.

Question 15

Judgement of magnitude

Answer 15

-how high did you judge your performance?

Question 16

relative accuracy (example / question)

Answer 16

What information do you know best? what information do you not know?

Question 17

absolute accuracy (example/questions)

Answer 17

Level of over or under confidence?
-can be measured with diffrent types of judgements

Question 18

how do you get absolute accuracy?

Answer 18

simple subtraction!
bias score formula

Question 19

how do you get relative accuracy?

Answer 19

Gamma correlation

Question 20

Ease of learning judgement

Answer 20

-not used often
-not accurate

Question 21

when would you use judgements of learning

Answer 21

-prediction judgements
-very important in studying contexts

Question 22

judgements of learning vs what?

Answer 22

immediate judgements vs delayed judgements

Question 23

Bias score formula

Answer 23

judgement magnitude - performance= bias score

Question 24

bias score chart

Answer 24

negative score = under confident
positive score = over confident
closer to zero = more accurate

Question 25

how is Judgement of learning absolute accuracy scored?

Answer 25

measured using bias scores

Question 26

what to do when you didn’t collect enough info to measure relative accuracy prediction

Answer 26

look at relative accuracy postdictions

Question 27

Judgement of learning measured using relative accuracy

Answer 27

Gamma correlations

Question 28

Does making a judgement make you more accurate?

Answer 28

No

Question 29

Is retrospective confidence judgements the most accurate with multiple choice questions?

Answer 29

Yes

Question 30

how to do retrospective confidence judgements

Answer 30

Basing info on things like:
-How easy or challenging the question is
-recall speed
-amount of information recalled
-detail of information recalled

Question 31

Is retrospective confidence judgements less accurate with open-ended question?

Answer 31

yes

Question 32

what do you use when performing metacomprehension?

Answer 32

reading articles or texts rather than basic memory tasks

Question 33

can meta comprehension be done with multiple choice questions and essay questions?

Answer 33

Yes

Question 34

self-paced learning

Answer 34

-study first —> make judgements —> restudy material —-> take test

Question 35

should you spend more time on items that you weren’t sure of? (self paced learning)

Answer 35

Yes

Question 36

-with self paced learning do you most often choose items that felt more feasible to learn

Answer 36

yes

Question 37

(*) is judgment of learning a prediction or post diction

Answer 37

prediction

Question 38

(*) Feeling of knowing “how likely are you to recognize a definition of metacognition if you see it as a multiple-choice question”

Answer 38

its feeling of knowing because is assess the likelihood. of recognizing information with a cue

Question 39

(*) absolute accuracy example

Answer 39

I say its going to take me 20 minutes to hike this hill and it actually takes me 40 that would mean my absolute accuracy is which would mean im biased because im overconfident

Question 40

(*) relative accuracy example

Answer 40

measurement of accuracy to another measurement for example if you predict that it will take you twice as long to complete a task compared to a friend that means you are relatively accurate compared to your friend
