Abstract
Purpose of this review: To review and reconcile the methodologies and understandings of metacognition from both cognitive science and psychopathology in Gaming Disorder and Gambling Disorder to enhance interdisciplinary communication and methodological exchange. Recent findings: While clinical metacognition research in gaming and gambling disorders is established, exploration into specific metacognitive mechanisms within these domains is still nascent. Summary: This review delineates various forms of metacognition and clinical measurements of metacognition in Gaming Disorder and Gambling Disorder. The discussion presents a new integrated model of metacognition in behavioural addictions that generates a research agenda to understand and target these addictions with more effective interventions.
