Previous studies found that metamemory beliefs dominate the font size effect on judgments of learning (JOLs). However, few studies have investigated whether beliefs about font size contribute to the font size effect in circumstances of multiple cues. The current study aims to fill this gap. Experiment 1 adopted a 2 (font size: 70 pt vs. 9 pt) * 2 (word frequency (WF): high vs. low) within-subjects design. The results showed that beliefs about font size did not mediate the font size effect on JOLs when multiple cues (font size and WF) were simultaneously provided. Experiment 2 further explored whether WF moderates the contribution of beliefs about font size to the font size effect, in which a 2 (font size: 70 pt vs. 9 pt, as a within-subjects factor) * 2 (WF: high vs. low, as a between-subjects factor) mixed design was used. The results showed that the contribution of beliefs about font size to the font size effect was present in a pure list of low-frequency words, but absent in a pure list of high-frequency words. Lastly, a meta-analysis showed evidence supporting the proposal that the contribution of beliefs about font size to the font size effect on JOLs is moderated by WF. Even though numerous studies suggested beliefs about font size play a dominant role in the font size effect on JOLs, the current study provides new evidence suggesting that such contribution is conditional. Theoretical implications are discussed.

元记忆信念对字体大小对学习判断的影响:词频是调节因素吗?

先前的研究发现,元记忆信念在字体大小对学习判断 (JOL) 的影响中占主导地位。然而,很少有研究调查关于字体大小的信念是否有助于多线索情况下的字体大小效应。目前的研究旨在填补这一空白。实验1采用了2(字体大小:70 pt vs. 9 pt)* 2(词频(WF):高vs.低)的被试内设计。结果表明,当同时提供多个提示(字体大小和 WF)时,关于字体大小的信念不会调节对 JOL 的字体大小影响。实验 2 进一步探讨了 WF 是否调节了关于字体大小的信念对字体大小效应的贡献,其中 2(字体大小:70 pt vs. 9 pt,作为被试内因素)* 2(WF:高 vs.低,作为受试者之间的因素)使用混合设计。结果表明,关于字体大小的信念对字体大小效应的贡献存在于纯低频词列表中,但不存在于纯高频词列表中。最后,一项荟萃分析显示了支持这一提议的证据,即关于字体大小的信念对 JOL 字体大小影响的贡献由 WF 调节。尽管许多研究表明,关于字体大小的信念在字体大小对 JOL 的影响中起着主导作用,但当前的研究提供了新的证据,表明这种贡献是有条件的。讨论了理论意义。一项荟萃分析显示了支持这一提议的证据,即关于字体大小的信念对 JOL 字体大小影响的贡献是由 WF 调节的。尽管许多研究表明,关于字体大小的信念在字体大小对 JOL 的影响中起着主导作用,但当前的研究提供了新的证据,表明这种贡献是有条件的。讨论了理论意义。一项荟萃分析显示了支持这一提议的证据,即关于字体大小的信念对 JOL 字体大小影响的贡献是由 WF 调节的。尽管许多研究表明,关于字体大小的信念在字体大小对 JOL 的影响中起着主导作用,但当前的研究提供了新的证据,表明这种贡献是有条件的。讨论了理论意义。
