Metacognition

The team addresses metacognition in different contexts. Chris Moulin is conducting in-depth research into metacognition in neurodegenerative disorders and extending his studies to more ecological contexts, particularly through the concept of spontaneous metacognition. Céline Souchay is focusing on exploring metacognition in relation to autobiographical memory. Romain Grandchamp studies the detection and regulation of mental states and develops immersive neurofeedback approaches to train metacognition. Nathalie Fournet is working on standardizing a behavioral assessment scale for Executive Functions (BRIEF-2), which includes an assessment of metacognitive functions. Her research also focuses on the links between metacognitive beliefs, intolerance to uncertainty, and rumination in obsessive-compulsive disorders. 
In the field of education, Jérôme Clerc is interested in metacognition in target sports, in relation to the acquisition of sporting expertise. This work has direct applications in educational psychology.
There are also strong links to memory and consciousness. Nathan Faivre is developing a computational model that can predict certain subjective aspects of perception and the accompanying confidence judgments. Meanwhile, Jean-Baptiste Eichenlaub's research on REM sleep has led him to explore lucid dreaming, a metacognitive phenomenon in which the dreamer becomes aware that they are dreaming.
