The structure and relationship of monitoring strategies and judgment accuracy. An integrative model and evidence from two studies

Resumen

Metacognitive monitoring plays a central role in models focusing either on monitoring strategies (models of self-regulated learning) or on monitoring judgments and their accuracy (models of metacognition). Although strategies and judgments are both concerned with monitoring one’s learning progress, they have been analyzed only independently, so far. To combine these two research perspectives, an integrative model is proposed. Two studies empirically tested the structure of metacognitive monitoring and investigated the influence of metacognitive knowledge and motivational components. The studies focused on general (Study 1, N = 396) and situation-specific (Study 2, N = 225) monitoring as well as on quantitative and qualitative aspects of monitoring (both studies). Across the two studies, monitoring one’s own learning was characterized by three separate but correlated factors: use of monitoring strategies, quality of monitoring strategies, and accuracy of monitoring judgments. Furthermore, common (metacognitive knowledge, expectancy) and specific (value) predictors of metacognitive monitoring were identified.
