Abstract

The aim of this article is to reflect on the possible relation between metacognition and motivation. Some aspects such as causality, locus of control or success expectancy can be conditioned by the metacognitive knowledge of students. We also establish a parallel between the development of metacognition and the characteristics of the kind of motivation in students. We incorporate this parallel with the learning styles that the students can apply in their studies.
