A recent study conducted at the University of Cambridge explored the relationship between metacognition and mental health. Metacognition refers to the ability to reflect on and evaluate one's own performance. The research found that disruptions to metacognition are associated with poor mental health. The study involved two experiments, one in a laboratory setting and one online, and found that acute stress can lead to poorer metacognitive efficiency. However, there was no evidence of metacognitive alterations in individuals with intrusive memory symptomatology following traumatic stress. The researchers concluded that further studies are needed to understand the duration and impact of stress-associated metacognitive impairments on mental health. [Extracted from the article] |
