Skylar J. Laursen; Dorina Sluka; Chris M. Fiacconi – Metacognition and Learning, 2024
Previous literature suggests learners can adjust their encoding strategies to match the demands of the expected test format. However, it is unclear whether other forms of metacognitive control, namely, study time allocation and restudy selection, are also sensitive to expected test format. Across four experiments we examined whether learners…
