The Motivational and Metacognitive Control in CLARION

This article presents an overview of a relatively recent cognitive architecture, and its internal control structures, that is, its motivational and metacognitive mechanisms. The chapter starts with a look at some general ideas underlying this cognitive architecture and the relevance of these ideas to cognitive modeling of agents. It then presents a sketch of some details of the architecture and their uses in cognitive modeling of specific tasks.
