Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to develop a task, which measures metacognitive capacity including online control, and to examine the validity of the task. The results showed that the task score was correlated with the performance of the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task and the impulsive error scores in Error Proneness Questionnaire. Considering that the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task and the impulsive error are related to metacognitive control, the validity of the task that was developed in this study was considered to be confirmed.
