Students with poor meta-cognition may benefit from meta-cognitive training to improve their meta-cognition and academic performance.

The data of this study were gathered from randomly chosen undergraduate students who have been studying at Ahi Evran University which is the restricted universe of the study, in the first term of 2009-2010 academic year.
