Abstract

The impact of affect on cognition is discussed. A procedure is described for the assessment of metacognitive knowledge monitoring that can be used for research on the impact of affect on cognition. The procedure may be group administered, is scored objectively, and relics minimally on self-reports. As an example of research linking affective and cognitive variables, the article describes use of the procedure in six studies dealing with the effects of anxiety and interest on metacognitive processes. Suggestions for further research on anxiety and interest using the metacognitive knowledge monitoring procedure are offered, as are some general recommendations for studies relating motivational and other processes to metacognition.
