Evidence for the factorial, convergent and discriminant, and criterion related validity of the Meta Comprehension Scale (MCS) was examined in a sample of 237 young adults. The instrument was factorially heterogeneous but exhibited homogeneity within each of the seven subscales. Evidence for the convergent and discriminant validity of the MCS was examined by correlating the subscales from the MCS with subscales from metacognitive questionnaires measuring similar constructs from related domains. In general, correlations within constructs were larger than correlations between constructs, providing preliminary evidence of the convergent and discriminant validity of the MCS. The criterion related validity of the MCS relative to other meta cognitive measures was examined by using the meta cognitive measures and the MCS to predict comprehension performance. The MCS predicted performance better than the other measures of meta cognition and accounted for variance in performance not accounted for by the other measures. These results show promise for the value of self assessments of meta comprehension.
