Experimentally, such evaluation processes are accessed using metacognitive reports. When made after decisions, metacognitive reports might reflect not only different levels of decision certainty, but also two certainty directions (certainty of being correct and certainty of being incorrect). It is important to test if such bi-directional processing can be measured because, for adaptive decision-making, information about being incorrect is as important as information about being correct.
