مستخلص: For successful learning, students need to evaluate their learning status relative to their learning goals and regulate their study in response to such monitoring. The present study investigated whether making metacognitive judgments on previously studied text would enhance the learning of that studied (backward effect) and newly studied text material (forward effect). We also examined how different learning goals would orient learners to adopt different study strategies and, in turn, affect learning performance by asking learners to make different types of metacognitive judgments. In two experiments, participants studied two different passages across two sections (Sections A and B). They were asked to make either inference-based or memory-based metacognitive judgments on the studied passage of Section A before studying a new passage in Section B. The study-only control group did not make any metacognitive judgments between sections. On completion of Section B, all participants were given final retention and transfer tests on both sections. The meta-analytic results from the two experiments revealed that making inference-based metacognitive judgments was more beneficial than simply studying the material for both retention and transfer of the previously studied and newly studied text material. However, the benefit of memory-based metacognitive judgments was limited, in that it did not enhance retention performance of the previously studied material compared to the control condition. The current findings suggest that the effectiveness of metacognitive judgments varies depending on the learning goal. Highlighting a high-level learning goal seems to influence learners' all knowledge levels, showing a cascading effect.
