Cognitive control research is concerned with the question how we install adaptive behaviour in the case of (cognitive) conflict. In this review we focus on the role that awareness of this conflict plays in our ability to exert cognitive control. We will argue that visual conflict is not the only building block of metacognitive experiences of conflict and discuss how they are related to cognitive control. So, a first aim of the current review is to understand how these different metacognitive judgements are created. To do so, we draw some remarkable parallels with research on metacognition in decision making and memory research. Next, we elaborate on the relationship between metacognition and adaptive behaviour, with a specific focus on the role of subjective experiences in the Gratton effect. The grey areas that persist in the current literature are highlighted. In addition to deciphering the mechanisms of metacognitive judgements in cognitive control, this overview also aims to further enlarge our understanding of metacognitive abilities at a more general level.

主观经验在冲突任务中的作用：综述。

认知控制研究关注的问题是，在（认知）冲突的情况下我们如何安装适应性行为。在这篇综述中，我们重点关注对这种冲突的认识在我们施加认知控制的能力中所起的作用。我们将争辩说，视觉冲突并不是冲突的元认知经验的唯一构建基块，并讨论了它们与认知控制的关系。因此，本综述的首要目的是了解如何创建这些不同的元认知判断。为此，我们在决策和记忆研究中与元认知研究得出了一些惊人的相似之处。接下来，我们将详细阐述元认知与适应行为之间的关系，特别关注主观经验在格拉顿效应中的作用。当前文献中存在的灰色区域突出显示。除了解释认知控制中的元认知判断机制外，本概述还旨在在更一般的水平上进一步扩大我们对元认知能力的理解。
