Concept information
Preferred term
meta-awareness
Definition
- To have an experience is not necessarily to know that one is having it. Situations such as suddenly realizing that one has not been listening to one's spouse (despite nodding attentively) or catching oneself shouting, “I'm not angry,” illustrate that people sometimes fail to notice what is going on in their own heads.
