Walker and Walker have developed a model of metacognition in school learning termed Steering Cognition, which describes the capacity of the mind to exert conscious control over its reasoning and processing strategies in relation to the external learning task. Studies have shown that pupils with an ability to exert metacognitive regulation over ...
Metacognitive therapy (MCT) is a psychotherapy focused on modifying metacognitive beliefs that perpetuate states of worry, rumination and attention fixation. [1] It was created by Adrian Wells [2] based on an information processing model by Wells and Gerald Matthews. [3] It is supported by scientific evidence from a large number of studies. [4] [5]
Nelson and Narens proposed a theoretical framework for understanding metacognition and metamemory. [2] In this framework there are two levels: the object level (for example, cognition and memory) and the meta level (for example, metacognition and metamemory). Information flow from the meta level to the object level is called control, and ...
Self-regulated learning (SRL) is one of the domains of self-regulation, and is aligned most closely with educational aims.

[5] [7] [30] This model has also been called the "dual-burden account" or the "double-burden of incompetence", since the burden of regular incompetence is paired with the burden of metacognitive incompetence. [9] [13] [15] The metacognitive lack may hinder some people from becoming better by hiding their flaws from them. [31]
Examples of metacognitive beliefs are; "Worry is uncontrollable", "I have little confidence in my memory for words and names", and "I am constantly aware of my thinking". The development of the questionnaire was informed by the Self-Regulatory Executive Function model (Wells & Matthews, 1994) which is the metacognitive model and theory of ...
Steering cognition is a model of social and cognitive executive function. It explains a functional governor mechanism by which the mind coordinates attention and executes responsive action. Metacognition. Steering cognition is a model of metacognition.
Leahy became interested in Beck's Cognitive Therapy model after becoming disillusioned with the psychodynamic model, which he felt lacked sufficient empirical support. [3] Many of his clinical books have been instrumental in disseminating the Cognitive Therapy model in its application to the treatment of depression, [ 4 ] bipolar disorder, [ 5 ...
