Chapter 13 discussed whether children's poor memory performance can be traced to faulty metamemory and ineffective use of memory strategies. According to this discussion,
 
  a. the correlation between metamemory and memory performance is extremely high.
  b. the correlation between metamemory and strategy use is high, but neither of these two factors is correlated with memory performance.
  c. the correlation between metamemory and memory performance is moderate, and it would probably be higher if we could accurately measure children's metamemory.
  d. none of the appropriate correlations is statistically significant, so some other factorother than metamemory accuracy and strategy usemust account for children's memory deficits.

Question 2

The discussion of children's metamemory examined research by Roebers and her colleagues. This research asked 5- to 10-year-old children to judge whether they had answered memory questions correctly. The results showed that
 
  a. these children were much more confident about the questions they answered correctly, compared to the questions they answered incorrectly.
  b. these children were equally confident about the questions they answered correctly and the questions they answered incorrectly.
  c. these children were overconfident about the questions that they had actually answered incorrectly.
  d. these children were unable to understand the metamemory task, so the results of this study were inconclusive.
