New preprint! Do men and women differ in their metacognitive abilities? In a new preprint, we detail robust differences in global and local metacognition which span multiple cognitive domains. Read all about our findings in this thread! #psychology#neuroskyenceosf.io/preprints/ps...
Please consider running your study on students in their final year of secondary education. I'd be interested in relations between GPA, decision to pursue post-secondary education, and the metacognitive gender bias that you document here.
Interesting work! Since nobody has asked this yet: You are referring to gender-differences so I am wondering if you have any information on non-binary or non-cis people in this?
Decades of psychology research indicates that men often express high levels of confidence relative to female colleagues. This "confidence gap" can undermine equity and lead to a "double bind" in which women are simultaneously punished for expressing too much or too little confidence.
Wow - great stuff Micah. That’s going straight into my upcoming Memory and Cognition lecture.
