Abstract: The experimental study of recall readiness assessment adopted 3×3×2(age, material,sex)three factors mixed experimental design In terms of the performance of learning (good, medium, not good) selected at random the subjects from second grade elementary school, junior high school and college There were 18 subjects in every grade (male 9 and female 9 ) There were 3 groups ( 6 sheets ) of word tables They were diversed word couples , verb - noun word couples , artfical built word couples There were 3 sheets containing 15 couples in each one , as formal word couples , and the other 3 sheets containing 5 couples each for exercise The materials were all selected from Chinese books that the subjects of second grade elementary school had studied, memory equipment was used to assume the materials, the subjects were told to report the number of memory done after the materials had been assumed , then to report the word couples which had been memorized The experiment adopted alternative method to appoint the subjects The results are as follows: ①The number of recall readiness assessment in the second grade elementary school was 1 6225 , junior high school was 0 4096 , junior college was 0 2007 ; ②The level of difference conspicuous of 3 materials in recall readiness assessment was >0 05 ③ The level of difference conspicuous of sex was >0 05 ④The correlate between achievement of memory and recall readiness assessment was 0 6199 Conclusion : ①The achievement of recall readiness assessment rose with age ②The effect of material in recall readiness assessment was inconspicuous ③Sex effect was not conspicuous There was higher positive correlation between the level of recall readiness assessment and the performance of memory

Key words: metamemory, memory monitory , recall readiness assessment
