Introduction: Metacognition, more than the lognes monster

Abstract

Metacognition is one of the promising contemporary research fields inpsychology and education. The concept has been introduced to describe andexplain how people gain control over their learning and thinking,particularly in the case of cognitive failures and difficulties they meet whendealing with information processing and problem solving (Efklides &Sideridis, 2009; Flavell, 1976). However, although every one agrees thatthere has to be something as ‘metacognition’ (like the lognes monster?), noone agrees as to what exactly metacognition is about. In additionresearchers currently use different concepts for overlapping phenomena(Desoete, 2007; 2008; Desoete & Roeyers, 2006; Desoete & Veenman, 2006).Is self-regulation the same as metacognitive skills? How does calibration fitin?
