Abstract

In this study we aimed to identify the main metacognitive skills that military students have developed as a result of their involvement in the academic and training activities carried out in the academy. For this we built a questionnaire consisting of 46 items divided into two major dimensions of metacognition. Data obtained from the questionnaire were subjected to factor analysis that resulted in detaining thirteen factors representing categories of metacognitive methods, techniques and strategies used by the students of the Land Forces Academy from Sibiu.
