TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Two Dissociable Aspects of Feeling-of-Knowing: Knowing That You Know and Knowing That You Do Not Know JO - Quarterly journal of experimental psychology (2006) A1 - Liu, Yunbo A1 - Su, Yanjie A1 - Xu, Gengsheng A1 - Chan, Raymond C. K. SP - 672 EP - 680 VL - 60 IS - 5 N2 - Feeling-of-knowing judgement is traditionally regarded as a unitary cognitive process. However, recent research suggests that knowing that you know (positive feeling-of-knowing) and knowing that you do not know (negative feeling-of-knowing) have different neural substrates (Luo, Niki, Ying, and Luo, 2004). In the present study, we used a paradigm adapted from Koriat and Levy-Sadot (2001) to examine whether positive feeling-of-knowing and negative feeling-of-knowing were mediated by distinct cognitive processes. We found that positive and negative feeling-of-knowing were dissociated during immediate feeling-of-knowing judgements (i.e., preliminary feeling-of-knowing) and delayed feeling-of-knowing judgements (i.e., postretrieval feeling-of-knowing). At the judgement intervals, positive feeling-of-knowing was based on partial recovery of the nonrecalled targets, whereas negative feeling-of-knowing was determined by familiarity with the retrieval cues. Our results suggest that feeling-of-knowing is a heterogeneous process.
