I will present the main challenges and solutions in this area. I shall focus on three aspects: a\/ First, I will present the methods for metacognition. Metacognition, or cognition about cognition, emerged as a field in educational psychology in the 1990s, but is now a major topic in decision making and consciousness science. An impressive amount of work has been devoted to the question of confidence, that is the degree of uncertainty that one has with respect to one\u2019s decisions. As a result, mathematical and psychophysical models of metacognition have been developed (the meta-d\u2019 model of Maniscalco and Lau for instance) and a sound understanding of them is essential as they are the best example of what a formal approach to subjectivity should be. b\/ However, metacognition in the form of confidence judgments does not exhaust in any way the domain of subjective reports. I will present other forms of quantitative subjective judgments (visibility reports and self-observation judgments notably), their aim and scope. c\/ At last, I will discuss the use of verbal reports. Free verbal reports are as old as scientific psychology itself, but I shall argue that recent advances in natural language processing (NLP) and data science transforms the use of verbal reports and protocol analysis. The examination of the three main methodologies shall be based on published studies by my team and others\u2019.<\/p>\n<h5>\u8a00\u3000\u8a9e\u3000\/ Language<\/h5>\n<p>English<\/p>\n<h5>\u5bfe\u3000\u8c61 \/ Prospected Audience<\/h5>\n<p>Faculty and staff members of a university, grad students, undergraduates, the general public<\/p>\n<h5>\u4e3b\u3000\u50ac \/ Organizer<\/h5>\n<p>WATANABE Katsumi\u00a0Laboratory,\u00a0Faculty of Science and\u00a0Engineering,\u00a0Waseda University<\/p>\n<p>Waseda Institute for Advanced Study, Waseda University<\/p>\n<h5>\u7533\u8fbc\u307f \/ Registration<\/h5>\n<p>Free of charge.
