TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Aligning confidence with accuracy: revisiting the role of feedback JO - Acta psychologica A1 - González-Vallejo, C. A1 - Bonham, Aaron SP - 221 EP - 239 VL - 125 IS - 2 N2 - Evaluation point feedback was used to align confidence judgments with accurate/inaccurate responding to general knowledge questions. Rehearsal of item-answer pairs and three evaluation systems based on a scoring rule had different effects on confidence, accuracy and their relationship. Using standard calibration measures (Yates, J.F., (1990). Judgment and Decision Making. Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice Hall) we found that a point system comprising of both rewarding (positive) and punishing (negative) consequences produced the best performance across levels of knowledge in comparison to all-rewarding and all-penalty rules.
