Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Metacognition, called cognition about cognition, refers to the ability which monitors and regulates the internal status of cognition. The present study quantified the primate metacognition by evaluating the confidence. Moreover,trial-by-trial fluctuations in the neural activities of the pulvinar encoding confidence correlated with the change of metacognition.
