Remote Episodic Memory Deficits In Patients With Unilateral Temporal Lobe Epilepsy And Excisions, Indre Viskontas, M. P. Mcandrews, M. Moscovitch

Psychology

The nature of remote memory impairment in patients with medial temporal lobe damage is the subject of some debate. While some investigators have found that retrograde amnesia in such patients is temporally graded, with relative sparing of remote memories (Squire and Alvarez, 1995), others contend that impairment is of very long duration and that remote memories are not necessarily spared (Sanders and Warrington, 1971; Nadel and Moscovitch, 1997). In this study, remote memory was assessed in 25 patients with unilateral temporal lobe epilepsy and 22 non-neurologically impaired controls using the Autobiographical Memory Interview (Kopelman et al., 1989). Results indicate that …

The Individual Responsibility Model Of Retirement Plans Today: Conforming Erisa Policy To Reality, Colleen E. Medill

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

Federal retirement policy today presents a significant regulatory paradox. Numerous studies have shown that participants in retirement savings plans need retirement planning education and investment advice. Yet they receive materials that are either too basic for participants who are financially sophisticated or too sophisticated for participants who are financially illiterate. Most participants do not receive professional investment advice before they direct the investment of their retirements savings. Why? This situation is the result of regulations and rulings issued by the Department of Labor, the federal agency that interprets and enforces the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

Multiple Personality Disorder, Accountable Agency, And Criminal Acts, Robert F. Schopp

Nebraska College of Law: Faculty Publications

Smedley Wormwood is an accountant who is indicted for embezzling funds from the company for which he works. He generally presents an impression of an unobtrusive, conventional, compliant, "vanilla" individual. When his lawyer interviews him about the charges, Smedley seems innocent, frightened, and bewildered. In discussing the details of events around the time of the alleged crime, Smedley becomes somewhat vague and then admits to some lapses in recall. Smedley then startles the lawyer by apparently undergoing a marked change in attitude, tone of voice, and apparent self-identity. The lawyer realizes that she is now discussing the crime with a …

7. Assessing Metacognition: Implications Of The Buros Symposium, Gregory Schraw

Issues in the Measurement of Metacognition

This chapter attempts to consolidate the diverse opinions and conclusions included in the previous six chapters of this volume. I have found it easiest to do so in three sections. Section 1 provides a summary the book's main themes. These themes pertain to the need for a more comprehensive theory of metacognition, the disparity between metacognitive theory and measurement, methodological questions about the measurement of metacognitive processes, concerns about poor instrumentation, the generality of the metacognition construct, and issues pertaining to educational practice. Section 2 raises concerns central to the measurement community in general. These concerns include questions about the …

5. Metacognition And Computer-Based Testing, Gregory Schraw, Steven L. Wise, Linda L. Roos

Issues in the Measurement of Metacognition

Metacognition refers to thinking about thinking, or more generally, to using higher-level knowledge and strategies to regulate lower level performance. Previous research suggests that metacognition is an important part of learning among adults (Baker, 1989; Garner & Alexander, 1989; Pressley & Ghatala, 1990) and children (Alexander, Carr, & Schwanenflugel, 1995; Borkowski & Muthukrishna, 1992). Metacognition contributes to learning in several ways, but especially by helping learners to use their attentional resources more efficiently, to process information at a deeper level, and to monitor their performance more accurately.

Notwithstanding its importance, there is considerable debate regarding how to measure meta cognition. …

2. Assessing Metacognition And Self-Regulated Learning, Paul R. Pintrich, Christopher A. Wolters, Gail P. Baxter

Issues in the Measurement of Metacognition

In this chapter we provide an overview of the conceptual and methodological issues involved in developing and evaluating measures of metacognition and self-regulated learning. Our goal is to suggest a general framework for thinking about these assessments- a framework that will help generate questions and guide future research and development efforts. Broadly speaking, we see the main issue in assessing metacognition and self-regulated learning as one of construct validity. Of critical importance are the conceptual or theoretical definitions of these constructs and the adequacy of the empirical evidence offered to justify or support interpretations of test scores obtained from instruments …

4. Assessing Metacognitive Knowledge Monitoring, Sigmund Tobias, Howard Everson

Issues in the Measurement of Metacognition

Metacognition has been defined as the ability to monitor, evaluate, and make plans for one's learning (Flavell, 1979; Brown, 1980). Research has shown that learners with effective metacognitive skills are more capable of making accurate estimates of what they know and do not know, of monitoring and evaluating their on-going learning activities, and of developing plans and selecting strategies for learning new material. A large body of literature, reviewed in the other chapters of this volume, has reported differences in metacognitive abilities between learning disabled and regular students, as well as between generally capable learners and their less able counterparts. …

3. Assessing Metacognition In Children And Adults, Linda Baker, Lorraine C. Cerro

Issues in the Measurement of Metacognition

It has been about 25 years now since researchers first became interested in the study of metacognition, with the onset of interest marked by the publication of the 1975 metamemory interview study of Kreutzer, Leonard, and Flavell and the seminal theoretical work of John Flavell (1976) and Ann Brown (1978). The early work by developmental psychologists on age-related differences in children's metacognition captured the attention of researchers concerned with individual differences in academic achievement in children as well as adults. Within academic domains, most of the research has been focused on reading and studying (Baker & Brown, 1984; Forrest Pressley …
