Direct linkRoderer, Thomas; Roebers, Claudia M. – Metacognition and Learning, 2014
This study focuses on relations between 7- and 9-year-old children's and adults' metacognitive monitoring and control processes. In addition to explicit confidence judgments (CJ), data for participants' control behavior during learning and recall as well as implicit CJs were collected with an eye-tracking device (Tobii 1750).…

Roebers, Claudia M.; von der Linden, Nicole; Schneider, Wolfgang; Howie, Pauline – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2007
Two studies were conducted in which two different indicators of metacognitive monitoring were investigated in a complex everyday memory task. In the first phase of each experiment, 8- and 10-year-olds as well as adults were shown a short event (video) and gave judgments of learning, that is, rated their certainty that they would later be able to…

Roebers, Claudia M.; von der Linden, Nicole; Howie, Pauline – British Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2007
Two studies are presented in which favourable and unfavourable conditions for children's meta-cognitive monitoring processes are examined. Previously reported findings have shown that especially children's uncertainty monitoring (in contrast to certainty monitoring) poses specific problems for children in their elementary school years. When…

Peer reviewedRoebers, Claudia M. – Developmental Psychology, 2002
Three studies investigated the role of 8- and 10-year-olds' and adults' metacognitive monitoring and control processes for unbiased event recall tasks and suggestibility. Findings suggested strong tendencies to overestimate confidence regardless of age and question format. Children did not lack principal metacognitive competencies when questions…

Peer reviewedRoebers, Claudia M.; Moga, Nelly; Schneider, Wolfgang – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2001
Examined role of accuracy motivation in event recall among 6-, 7-, and 8-year-olds, and adults. In high accuracy motivation condition, children as young as 6 were to withhold uncertain answers for benefit of accuracy. Expected quality-quantity tradeoff emerged only for peripheral items. The "I don't know" option condition decreased the…

Peer reviewedRoebers, Claudia M.; Howie, Pauline – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2003
Two studies examined progression in children's and adults' ability to monitor attempts to recall event details and the dependence of metamemory on question format. Only with an unbiased question format did subjects give higher confidence ratings after correct than after incorrect answers. When interviews contained misleading questions, children…
