When students are left to choose their own approaches to studying, they frequently engage in ineffective learning strategies, such as rereading textbooks or cramming. Given this natural tendency amongst students, there has been significant interest in how to increase the use of more effective methods of studying. Efforts to-date have typically…

Megan N. Imundo; Inez Zung; Mary C. Whatley; Steven C. Pan – Metacognition and Learning, 2025
We investigated the benefits of two ways to use flashcards to perform retrieval practice: alone versus with a partner. In three experiments, undergraduate students learned word-definition pairs using flashcards alone (Individual condition) or with another student (Paired condition). Participants then made global judgments of learning (gJOLs;…

Händel, Marion; de Bruin, Anique B. H.; Dresel, Markus – Metacognition and Learning, 2020
Extensive research has been conducted to understand how accurately students monitor their studying and performance via metacognitive judgments. Moreover, the bases of students' metacognitive judgments are of interest. While previous results are quite consistent regarding the importance of performance for the accuracy of metacognitive judgments,…

Gyllen, Justin G.; Stahovich, Thomas F.; Mayer, Richard E.; Darvishzadeh, Amirali; Entezari, Negin – Metacognition and Learning, 2019
The present work examines the accuracy of self-reports of study time for college students. In a 10-week Mechanical Engineering course, 99 college students accessed their textbook, homework solutions, graded work, and lecture slides via custom software that recorded objective measures of reading time. In addition, the students provided subjective…

Couchman, Justin J.; Miller, Noelle E.; Zmuda, Shaun J.; Feather, Kathryn; Schwartzmeyer, Tina – Metacognition and Learning, 2016
Students often gauge their performance before and after an exam, usually in the form of rough grade estimates or general feelings. Are these estimates accurate? Should they form the basis for decisions about study time, test-taking strategies, revisions, subject mastery, or even general competence? In two studies, undergraduates took a real…

Wolters, Christopher A.; Hussain, Maryam – Metacognition and Learning, 2015
We investigated grit and its relations with students' self-regulated learning (SRL) and academic achievement. An ethnically diverse sample of 213 college students completed an online self-report survey that included the Grit Short scale (Duckworth and Quinn "Journal of Personality Assessment, 91(2)," 166-174, 2009), seven indicators of…
