Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cognitive self-regulation involves the ability to monitor and control one's own thoughts and actions to achieve a desired outcome. While school-age children may have some knowledge of what this means, they struggle to put it into practice consistently. Metacognition, or thinking about one's own thinking, is closely related to cognitive self-regulation and also requires a high level of self-awareness and control. Problem solving and conservation are separate cognitive abilities that may or may not be affected by children's development in the area of self-regulation.
