Learning strategies and academic performance have been extensively investigated but relatively few studies were conducted in East Asia. This volume presents a reflection on the current status of metacognition and academic performance in the East Asian region. It serves to provide a more complete picture of the global study of how students‘ learning and studying strategies affect their acdemic performance. This book will be of interest to researchers and educators in the area of education, education psychology, cross-cultural studies, education policy, curriculum and instruction and regional studies.

Michael C. W. Yip is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology at the Education University of Hong Kong. His research interests include Cognitive Sciences, Educational Psychology and Experimental Psycholinguistics.
