Originally published in 1987, Metacognition, Motivation, and Understanding brought together thinking about these three approaches to learning; attempting to integrate each field of developmental research with respect to its theoretical base and results.

The book discusses the integration of metacognition, motivation, and understanding as key factors in effective learning and cognitive development. It highlights the complexity of learning processes and the need for a comprehensive understanding of individual differences in learning effectiveness. The volume was based on a symposium aimed at bridging research on these interrelated fields to enhance educational strategies. The contributors were considered to be experts in their field. The research reported here was important for the elaboration of theories of cognitive development at the time and had consequences for educational strategies and related applied problems. Today it can be read in its historical context.

This volume, a collection of papers resulting from a conference sponsored by the Max Planck Society, presents an overview of past research on memory development, possible applications of this research, and new ideas for future areas of study. The role of cognitive components in the development of memory performance and the social and motivational contexts of memory development are described. Includes various theoretical approaches explaining memory development across the life span. Memory Development: Universal Changes and Individual Differences is of interest to researchers, undergraduates and graduate students in developmental psychology, educational psychology and technology, and experimental psychology.
