An Integrative Approach to Personal Epistemology: A Guiding Model (2004, methodology): “More specifically, Hofer (2004) situates beliefs about the certainty and simplicity of knowledge within metacognitive knowledge, and the source of knowledge and justification for knowing within metacognitive judgments and monitoring.”
The Role of Epistemic Beliefs in Self-Regulated Learning (2007, background): “Previous research has found that individual expertise develops with disciplinary training (Hofer, 2004) and that as disciplinary training increases individuals’ epistemic beliefs become more constructivist (e.”
Epistemological beliefs and epistemic strategies in self-regulated learning (2010, background): “…interest in epistemological beliefs has only recently emerged in educational psychology, the concept fits naturally in existing frameworks of self-regulated learning: Epistemological beliefs may be regarded as an epistemological type of metacognitive knowledge (cp. Hofer, 2004; Kitchener, 1983).”
Epistemic metacognition in context: evaluating and learning online information (2010, background): “The theoretical assumption underlying the study is that beliefs about knowledge and knowing should be examined in practice, that is, when they are activated in a particular context of inquiry ( Hofer 2004 ).”
Modeling Epistemic and Ontological Cognition: Philosophical Perspectives and Methodological Directions (2008, methodology): “Hofer (2004a) argued, “There is integration among an individual’s perspectives, which is more than a collection of independent beliefs. . . .”
A Meta-Analytic Review of the Relationship Between Epistemic Cognition and Academic Achievement (2018, background): “The final dimension in Hofer and Pintrich’s model, justification of knowing, ranged from the naïve view that justification is based on appeals to authorities, to the advanced view that justification is based on inquiry norms and evaluation of the source (Hofer, 2004).”
Multiple Epistemological Coherences in an Eighth-Grade Discussion of the Rock Cycle (2006, background): “Hofer (2000) showed differences between students’ beliefs about science and their beliefs about psychology. Gottlieb (2002) showed that the Orthodox Jews in his study frequently used evaluative and relativist views with respect to secular matters, whereas they relied on absolutist and authority-base”
Epistemological resources and framing: a cognitive framework for helping teachers interpret and respond to their students' epistemologies (2010, background): “At first, he had to keep reminding himself to explain ideas in simple terms rather than revert to rote memorization, an example of epistemological volition (Bendixen & Rule, 2004; Corno, 1993) relying on metacognitive monitoring in an epistemological context (Hofer, 2004).”
Reconsidering Personal Epistemology as Metacognition: A Multifaceted Approach to the Analysis of Epistemic Thinking (2014, background): “Kitchener, 1983), or monitoring and judging how we know and regulating cognition during knowledge construction (Hofer, 2004).”
Argumentation for Learning: Well-Trodden Paths and Unexplored Territories (2016, background): “Epistemic thinking involves metacognitive awareness of and reflection on the individual’s personal knowledge and knowing, as well as on the nature knowledge and knowing in general (Barzilai & Zohar, 2014; Chinn, Buckland, & Samarapungavan, 2011; Hofer, 2004; Mason & Bromme, 2010).”
Epistemic Metacognition in the Context of Information Searching on the Web (2008, background): “We concur with Alexander and Sinatra (2007) and Hofer (2004) that, for terminological clarification, epistemological beliefs should be conceived in terms of beliefs about epistemology, that is, beliefs about the study of knowledge.”
