To further understand how individuals make PM metacognitive judgements and how these change as we get older, the current project will adopt a cue-utilisation approach to study age differences in metacognitive sensitivity to extrinsic and intrinsic cues. Accordingly, we will conduct a systematic investigation of how judgements of learning (JOLs) change by manipulating an intrinsic cue [in experiment 1] – i.e., the emotional valence of PM cues (positive vs. neutral vs. negative) – and an extrinsic cue [in experiment 2] – i.e., the associated reward (fixed vs. losses vs. gains). Further details can be found in the pre-registered protocol uploaded on OSF.
