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.
