Sources of information in metamemory: Judgments of learning and feelings of knowing

Abstract: Metamnemonic judgments probe people's awareness of their own memory processes. The research reviewed here is an examination of the sources of information that subjects use to make judgments oflearning (e.g., paired-associate judgments, ease-of-recognition predictions, free-recalljudgments), and feelings of knowing (e.g., speeded strategy decisions, tip-of-the-tongue states, feeling-of-knowingjudgments). The general pattern in the data suggests that subjects use different sources of information to form these ju… Show more

“…Although strength theory long ago was rejected as a general theory of memory, it continues to be discussed by researchers interested in FOK effects (see, e.g., Koriat, 1993;T. O. Nelson et al, 1984;Schwartz, 1994;Schwartz & Metcalfe, 1992). For this reason, it is useful to discuss its relevance for the present research.…”

“…In the present context, this hypothesis has two independent components. The first component assumes that memory predictions are influenced by the degree to which the test cue seems familiar and can be recognized (see, e.g., Metcalfe, 1993;Reder, 1987Reder, , 1988Reder & Ritter, 1992;Schwartz, 1994;Schwartz & Metcalfe, 1992). The second component assumes that FOKs also can be sensitive to the amount of competition that arises when the encoding of the test cue causes directly connected associates to become activated (Schreiber & D. 1.…”

“…This suggests that confidence ratings and recognition judgments appear to be based, at least in part, on the same information. To account for these effects, a variety of theories have been proposed, which are reviewed by Schwartz (1994) and briefly summarized below. Most of these studies measure either prospective confi-dence ratings taken subsequent to a study period or FOK judgments that are made in response to a cued-recall failure during test.…”
