Discuss the effects of metacognitive regulation on memory performance.
Metacognition is concerned about the processes by which people self-reflect on their own cognitive and memory processes (monitoring). Monitoring is an executive function of working memory as it serves to update novel information, focuses attention on task-relevant targets, and eliminates task-irrelevant noise. Thus Metacognitive regulation enhances our memory performance and it is seen that this Metacognitive regulation declines with aging leading to a poor memory.
