ABSTRACT
The actuality of the study is linked with the fact that issues of social psychological aspects of professionalization of physicians and specifics of metacognitive processes that are the basis of professionalization and continuous university and post-graduate education are explored insufficiently. It is revealed that metacognitive processes in professionalization of physicians at different stages of education and profession mastering have a number of common and specific features. It is established for the first time that in medical students their metacognitive activity and independence in solving various communicative problems is related to increasing of socio-reflexion. At that, higher level of self-reflexion complicates realization of original solutions and excessive analysis brings doubts in success of creative solutions and results in overestimation of failure risks in the process of creative solution implementation. The analysis of post-graduate education stage proved that pediatricians focusing on cooperation with patients have higher level of self-control and self-organization. It is established that self-organization directly depends on motivation to obtain new information.

Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo dar cuenta de niveles de actividad metacognitiva en estudiantes universitarios, estableciendo diferencias en función de variables como la edad y semestre académico de los participantes, para lo cual se utilizó el Cuestionario de Autorreporte de Actividad Metacognitiva. En el estudio participaron 95 estudiantes de ambos sexos, que cursaban primero, quinto y décimo semestre en un programa de psicología de una universidad pública. Los datos arrojados permiten establecer que la actividad metacognitiva, en relación tanto con el semestre como con la edad en la muestra estudiada, se ubica en un nivel medio bajo. En ninguno de los semestres, ni en los rangos de edad se registran niveles altos en los componentes de Conciencia, Control y Autopoiesis. No se encontró correlación significativa entre actividad metacognitiva y semestre académico cursado, como tampoco con la edad.

ABSTRACT
Se estableció la relación entre la actividad metacognitiva y la comprensión lectora en 40 estudiantes de décimo grado de una institución educativa en Santa Marta (Colombia). Para el estudio se empleó un diseño no experimental correlacional, con enfoque cuantitativo. Los resultados permitieron aproximarse al conocimiento de las características y relaciones de esas dos actividades mentales, e indican que la actividad metacognitiva en la muestra es nula, el nivel de comprensión lectora es bajo y no existe relación estadísticamente significativa entre los dos procesos.
