Accumulated studies have found that learners would have an illusion of ability during the learning process when predicting whether previously learned materials can be recalled in subsequent tests.Learners may overestimate or underestimate their performance in the situation,and this phenomenon is called metacognitive illusion.Recently,the belief hypothesis proposed that relevant beliefs would be produced when individuals process perceptual information,and such belief would affect the judgment.This study explores the influence of beliefs on the metacognitive illusion of complete and incomplete nouns by manipulating font shape(nouns with complete or missing strokes)and using pre-study and immediate judgments of learning(JOLs).The results of the study found that the participants had a metacognitive illusion of complete nouns,that is,the nouns with complete strokes got higher JOLs but lower recall scores than nouns with incomplete strokes.
