Seeing the differences in the results of several previous studies on metacognitive abilities in problem solving, researchers are interested in examining students' metacognitive abilities in problem solving in terms of gender differences. This problem is important to study because it aims to determine the implementation of the metacognitive abilities of male and female students in problem solvingThe purpose of this study was to determine the metacognitive ability of male and female students in problem solving using TIMSS questions at SMP Al-Falah Pesanggrahan Jangkar for the 2020/2021 academic year. This type of research is descriptive qualitative. The subjects of this study were one male student and one female student from class VII SMP AL-Falah Pesanggrahan who had the same mathematical ability. Data collection techniques in this study were interviews, mathematical ability tests and TIMSS questions. Data analysis in this study was analyzed on each data collection technique. The results of data analysis showed that there was no difference in metacognitive ability in problem solving between male and female students. The metacognitive abilities of male and female students have been used well in problem solving. Both of them can explain their thinking process in every stage of problem solving.   Keywords: Metacognition Ability, Problem solving, TIMSS questions, Mathematical Ability, Gender Difference.

Updating one’s beliefs about the causes and effects of climate change is crucial for altering attitudes and behaviours. Importantly, metacognitive abilities - insight into the (in)correctness of one’s beliefs- play a key role in the formation of polarized beliefs. We investigated the role of domain-general and domain-specific metacognition in updating prior beliefs about climate change across the spectrum of climate change scepticism. We also considered the role of how climate science is communicated in the form of textual or visuo-textual presentations. We show that climate change scepticism is associated with differences in domain-general as well as domain-specific metacognitive abilities. Moreover, domain-general metacognitive sensitivity influenced belief updating in an asymmetric way : lower domain-general metacognition decreased the updating of prior beliefs, especially in the face of negative evidence. Our findings highlight the role of metacognitive failures in revising erroneous beliefs about climate change and point to their adverse social effects.

ABSTRACT:Many ‘deep self’ theories of moral responsibility characterize the deep self as necessarily requiring that an agent be able to reflect on her own cognitive states in various ways. In this paper, I argue that these metacognitive abilities are not actually a necessary feature of the deep self. In order to show this, I appeal to empirical evidence from research on autism spectrum disorders (ASD) that suggests that individuals with ASD have striking impairments in metacognitive abilities. I then argue that metacognitive conceptions of the deep self are implausible insofar as they fail to give a satisfactory account of the responsibility of persons with autism.

Metacognition is a person's knowledge, awareness and control of the process and the results of his thinking, this study aims to describe the students' metacognitive abilities in solving problems with the Two Variable Equation System (SPLDV). The ability of Metacognition in this study consists of three stages: planning, monitoring, and evaluation. The research is descriptive qualitative. The subjects in this study from class VIII grade students of SMP Negeri 3 Bandar Lampung. Data collection techniques in this study were written tests, observations, interviews, and documentation. The data technique reduction data, presenting data and drawing conclusions. The results of research conducted on male and female students show that there is no difference in using the structure or ability that it already has to solve mathematical problems encountered. However, there are differences in the procedure for carrying out problem-solving. While the steps to plan and look again there are no differences in procedures and concepts.

Increasing the metacognitive abilities of chemistry students is an indisputable output of the teaching and learning process today. Collaborative problem based learning is a learning method that has been tested and proven to be applied, especially in Western countries in increasing the metacognitive abilities of students, but it is still very minimal applied in Asian countries, including Indonesia. Thus, this study was conducted to explore previous studies that examined collaborative problem-based learning in improving students' metacognitive abilities. The research design used in this study is a Systematic Literature Review with the requirements of the inclusion of articles on collaborative problem-based learning in improving the metacognitive abilities of chemistry students, accredited national and international publications between 2010 and 2020, full text, journal articles, and open access. The results of the exploration that were carried out found 102 articles, then the title and abstract were read into 20 articles, and 4 articles were read in full, which fulfilled all the stipulated inclusion requirements. The results of the systematic literature review conducted in this study provide empirical evidence of literacy that problem based learning improves the metacognitive abilities of chemistry students. However, most of research conducted still uses various instruments, which are not standardized and validated.


Present investigation is aimed on studying the student’s metacognitive abilities peculiarities depending on their professional education direction. The research is realized on a student’s sample of natural (Biology), philological (Foreign Languages) and mathematical (Mathematics) directions of learning. The following methods were used in the work: verbal-colour interference test (J. R. Stroop); motor test (J. Schwarzlander); third subtest of WAIS test; Thinking Styles Inventory (R. Sternberg); The Matching Familiar Figures Test (J. Kagan); Study of subjective control’s level (E. F. Bazhin, E. A. Golynkina, L. M. Etkind); «Analytical Review of Learning Style» (Rebecca L. Oxford). To determine the structure of metacognitive abilities, the method of factor analysis (Varimax raw) was carried out. As a result of factorization four factors were identified: metacognitive monitoring; personal control; self-organization of activity; activity programming. Each of the factors can be represented as a separate component of metacognitive abilities. The revealed structure corresponds to the concepts of J.H. Flavell, C.D Fritht, S.G. Paris and P. Winograd. Component “Metacognitive monitoring” is subject-nonspecific, it means that metacognitive knowledge does not depend on the field of professional education. Components “Self-Organization of Activity”, “Activity programming” and “Personal Control” have differences depending on the direction of student learning. Biology students (natural science) have a high level of “Self-organization of Activity” component. Students of the Faculty of Foreign Languages (philological direction) are characterized by the predominant development of the components “Self-organization of Activity” and “Activity programming”. Students of mathematics (mathematical direction) are distinguished by the developed components «Personality control» and «Activity programming». Subject-specific or subject-nonspecific nature of the components in the metacognitive abilities’ structure is summarised in conclusions.
