MEMORY & METACOGNITION GROUP
aBOUT THE LAB
How can we understand and enhance learning? Research in the Memory & Metacognition Group focuses on this research question, that is, on different applied and theoretical aspects relating to memory, learning, and metacognition.
Metacognition research is about the monitoring (e.g., how well you think you have learned something) and control (i.e., how you regulate your study behavior) of our cognitions. More specifically, in our lab we examine how well we monitor our learning in different situations, and we seek to enhance our understanding of how we make these judgments (i.e., on what information they are based and which factors affect them). In addition, we are interested in how metacognitive judgements relate to study regulation and ultimately to successful learning.
Memory research is about understanding how memory functions and how we learn. Specifically, in our lab, we examine various learning strategies (e.g. the testing effect), as well as learners’ knowledge and awareness about such learning strategies. You can find more information about the different projects on the individual member’s pages.
