As isgenerally believed, metacognition has direct linkage with higher order thinking skills, which isall about regulating and functioning on cognitive processes of learning. According toLivingstone (2003: 2), “activities such as planning how to approach a given learning task,monitoring comprehension, and evaluating progress towards the completion of ‘that’ task ismetacognitive in nature.” As to the educational practices, learners thinking styles andmetacognitive awareness should be attached importance in the sense that both are consideredinfluential factors on learning and thinking. Therefore, the current study aims to scrutinize thispossible relationship that takes place in foreign language education specifically.

Based on the findings ofthe study, it can be said that the participants have a moderate level of metacognition, the mostprominent thinking styles are legislative, judicial, monarchic, and anarchic thinking styles,and legislative, executive, monarchic, and internal thinking styles predict metacognition.en_US
