Metacognition allows us to monitor our own cognitive states and thereby better control our behavior. Comparative psychologists have developed several non-verbal procedures to examine metacognition in non-human species. Among these, information-seeking paradigms appear particularly naturalistic, and they can be adapted to various experimental settings (e.g., face-to-face contexts, or operant experiments). In this chapter, we describe three of our three experiments of prospective information-seeking. First, we introduce a study that uses a reference memory task in pigeons. Although avian species have shown weak evidence of metacognition in a delayed matching to sample test, some of our pigeons prospectively sought information during the reference memory task, which required fewer working memory resources. This finding indicated the importance of using cognitive tasks that are suitable for the subject species. Second, we describe studies of human children that used non-verbal procedures, as in studies of metacognition in animals. These kinds of developmental studies may also contribute to understanding the evolution of metacognition. Finally, we introduce a non-verbal information-seeking procedure to examine preparatory behavior for potential forgetting. Our studies of capuchin monkeys revealed no compelling evidence of preparatory information-seeking; however, the procedure appears promising for studying other species too. As preparatory information-seeking is related to future-oriented cognition, our procedure might help to shed new light on metacognition across a range of non-human animals.
