q3 i? 11/12-year-olds outperformed 9/10-year-olds when considering characteristics of on-going retrieval processes. → Krebs 2012

Evidence¶

Krebs 2012¶

Krebs, S.S., Roebers, C.M. (2012). The impact of retrieval processes, age, general achievement level, and test scoring scheme for children's metacognitive monitoring and controlling. Metacognition and Learning 7, 75–90. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11409-011-9079-3

q3 · i? · causal · r?

Age comparison within the same N = 150 experimental study: the article reports all children showed adequate metacognitive processes, "with 11/12- year-olds outperforming 9/10-year-olds when considering characteristics of on-going retrieval processes." No effect size is printed.

"All children showed adequate metacognitive processes before and during test taking with 11/12- year-olds outperforming 9/10-year-olds when considering characteristics of on-going retrieval processes."
