Research Abstract |
This study was conducted to confirm 1) the effects of the "Mirroring method" for meta-cognitive skill training, 2) the possibility of applying "the diary method" for achieving lasting training effects, 3) whether the education effects are different among participants with different levels of cognitive ability. The results were as follows: 1) The participants who showed overestimation of their driving performance at the beginning lowered their self-evaluation results after the educational program. After the educational program, the participants' driving performances received higher evaluations. 2) The educational effects were still recognized three months later. 3) The sixty participants were grouped into three groups according to their scores on the stroop test. They showed no difference in the rate of improvement in safety performances gained by the education.
