John Dunlosky studies learning, human memory and metacognition, including how people assess what they will remember. His work with Thomas O. Nelson varied the timing and cue content of judgments of learning. A useful monitoring judgment predicts which items will later be recalled, which is different from merely reporting a high average expectation of success. This distinction helps connect laboratory judgments to decisions about further study. [ref]
