Discussion

Experiments reveal that metacognitive conflict lowers confidence levels in decisions, suggesting feedback impacts performance.

Lower confidence is observed following metacognitive conflict, demonstrating an immediate behavioral adjustment.
The study utilized perceptual decision-making experiments to assess how feedback influences metacognitive awareness.
Computational modeling revealed that participants adjust their confidence reporting after metacognitive conflict occurs.
Insights gained from this research highlight the short-term effects of metacognitive conflict on cognitive performance.

Xing et al. (2025) studied this question.
