The aim of the study was to investigate the dynamics of
metacognitive monitoring during learning category structures
defined by logical rules of different levels of complexity:
conjunctive, conjunctive-disjunctive or complex rule. Feelingof-
warmth judgments were used repeatedly during learning to
assess participants' subjective feelings about how close they
are to the acquisition of the appropriate rule. After each
judgment, participants were asked to describe logical rules
underlying category structures. As expected, the results
showed that feeling-of-warmth judgments generally follow
classification accuracy through the course of learning. Rule
description accuracy shows a similar pattern and is also
congruent with classification accuracy through the course of
learning. Contrary to expectations, there were no differences
between different levels of category structure complexity on
any of the tested measures.
