Abstract:
Contemporary theories of learning suggest that successful learners are active in the learning process and that they tend to use a number of metacognitive processes to monitor learning and remembering. Drawing on the theoretical framework of Nelson and Narens (1992), the current study examined the effect of certain variables on metamemory processes and on students' ability to recall and recognise learned material. The present study explored the effect of four independent variables on five dependent variables. The independent variables were: 1. degree of learning (responses given until 2 or 8 t

Abstract:
The concept of metamemory proposes that supplementary to typically measured memory abilities, memory monitoring and control processes are used to optimise learning. Accurate memory monitoring appears to be underpinned by a range of cognitive, and possibly affective, contributions. In populations with these deficits, metamemory has been shown to be impaired. In Multiple Sclerosis (MS), only a limited metamemory literature exists, surprising given that MS is a leading cause of disability among people of working age, and cognitive and mood disorder is common.

Abstract:
ASD is a neurodevelopmental disorder which primarily affects social interaction and communication. However, a growing literature has also identified some episodic memory difficulties in this group (e.g.: free recall, autobiographical memory, recollection). A plausible reason ·for this is that people with ASD lack the metacognitive mechanisms necessary for efficient memory. Hitherto, few studies have assessed metamemory (awareness of one's own memory) in ASD. The novelty of the current thesis was thus to compare performance of children with ASD to typically developing children on metacognitive

Groups of YAs (N = 138) and OAs (N = 79) performed a MM task that required participants to place bets on how likely they were to remember words in a list.

Abstract:
Prospective memory (PM) develops considerably during childhood and especially around 7 and 8 years of age. Developmental advances in PM during this age period have been primarily linked to executive functions (EFs), such as inhibitory control, set shifting, working memory (WM) and monitoring. However, recently it has been suggested that also metamemory (MM) would be potentially involved. To date, only few studies have investigated the relation between MM and PM. The aim of the present work was to investigate the effect and the role of procedural MM in PM of 7- and 8-year-old children by using

Visual memory holds in mind details of objects, textures, faces, and scenes.

How does visual memory maintenance work? This dissertation builds the argument that the maintenance of short-term visual memories is analogous to the act of breathing: it is a dynamic process with a default behavior that explains much of its usual workings, but which can be observed, overridden, and controlled

Abstract:
Este trabalho investigou processos metamnemônicos de monitoramento e controle, bem como conhecimento e desempenho de memória em diversas condições. O Capítulo I apresenta um paradigma experimental de aprendizado associativo de pares de palavras para avaliação da metamemória. No Capítulo II observou-se que julgamentos de aprendizagem (JOL) tardios foram mais precisos do que imediatos, porém apenas para adultos jovens, em comparação a adultos de idade intermediária. Adultos jovens contaram mais com seus JOLs e seu desempenho de memória prévios para alocação de tempo de estudo (STA), porém apenas

Contrary to some earlier findings, Experiments 1 and 2 showed that participants do indeed withhold some correct responses due to the stringent repo
