摘要：Demographics work as identification status for an individual and for “how you think” there is always these small identifications that influence otherwise a greater objective. For advancement in psychopathology and understanding behaviour that fuel behavioral irregularities, there have been lack of research that have examined demographic correlates that affect the metacognition. In this perspective, 350 young adults took part in a study in the city of Ahmedabad, the present investigation was undertaken to investigate the influence of demographic factors, that is, family type, family income, parent’s education, number of siblings and birth order. The Metacognition Questionnaire (MCQ-30) has been used as a measure of metacognition. Mean, standard deviation, ‘t’ test and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) have been employed for the analysis of data. The results of the study reveal significant impact of demographics on the metacognition of young adults. This study suggests understanding and regulation of one’s own unhelpful metacognitions and treads path for future research in using the above understanding in the field of psychopathology.
