Metacognition research has focused on the degree to which nonhuman primates share humans' capacity to monitor their cognitive processes. Convincing evidence now exists that monkeys can engage in metacognitive monitoring. By contrast, few studies have explored metacognitive control in monkeys, and the available evidence of metacognitive control supports multiple explanations. The current study addresses this situation by exploring the capacity of human participants and rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) to adjust their study behavior in a perceptual categorization task. The study found that humans and monkeys increased their study for high-difficulty categories, suggesting that both share the capacity to exert metacognitive control.

元认知研究主要集中在非人类灵长类动物在多大程度上共享人类监测认知过程的能力。现在有令人信服的证据表明，猴子可以进行元认知监测。相比之下，很少有研究探索猴子的元认知控制，而且现有的元认知控制证据支持多种解释。本研究通过探索人类参与者和恒河猴（Macaca mulatta）在知觉分类任务中调整其学习行为的能力来解决这一情况。研究发现，人类和猴子增加了对高难度类别的学习，这表明两者都具有行使元认知控制的能力。（PsycINFO 数据库记录（c）2009 APA，保留所有权利）。
