- Abstract:
- In recent years, the concept of metacognition has increasingly become the focus of research as an explanatory and therapeutic approach to mental illness. A subdomain of metacognition is the concept of introspective accuracy, which refers to the accuracy of a person's self-assessment. This has been investigated in recent research, particularly in patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. In some studies, metacognitive therapy has shown promise as a therapeutic approach for depressive disorders. The role of self-assessment accuracy needs to be further investigated, especially in patients with depressive disorders.
