The International Association for Metacognition (IAM) was founded in 2001. A major goal of IAM is to foster discussion and research on issues relevant to metacognition. The IAM meeting held immediately prior to the Psychonomics convention was originally the sole vehicle used to achieve this goal.

In the last few years, however, the association has begun to provide additional resources to further promote research in the area through this website. These include an extended membership directory, a listing of recent publications relevant to metacognition, and a variety of other web-based resources. You can read more about any of these services by clicking its corresponding menu button on the left.

Membership in IAM is free. If you’d like to become a member, send your name and email address to the IAM web manager (Michael Serra, michaeljserra(at)hotmail(dot)com), and we will add you to the mailing list and include your contact information in the Member Directory.
