Developmental differences in metacognition and their connections with cognitive development in adulthood
Bakračevič, Karin
This study investigated developmental differences in some metacognitive variables in ill-defined problem solving and their possible connections with cognitive development in adulthood. Participants ...were 57 participants of different ages (adolescents, young adults, mature adults and older adults). They solved one well-defined and six ill-defined problems while their thinking-aloud was taped. They then answered a metacognitive statements questionnaire. Differences in performance were statistically significant in all problems: the best results in interpolation and divergent production problems were achieved by the younger adult group and the best performance on most dialectical everyday problems was found in the mature adults' group. We found no significant differences between age groups in the on-line monitoring of the solving process. Accuracy in metacognitive statements was however significantly better in the mature adult and the younger adult groups. Awareness of and reflection on one's own mental processes showed a similar developmental pattern to relativistic/dialectical thought: low expression in adolescence, an increase in early adulthood, a peak in mature adulthood and a minor decline in later years.
