Insights into the molecular genetic basis of individual differences in metacognition.

Abstract excerpt

There is a striking lack of studies on the molecular genetic basis of metacognition, i.e., the higher-order ability to monitor mental processes. Here, an initial step toward resolving this issue was undertaken by investigating functional polymorphisms from three genes of the dopaminergic or serotonergic systems (DRD4, COMT, and 5-HTTLPR) in relation to behaviorally assessed metacognition in six paradigms across...
