Abstract
Bilinguals are better than monolinguals in detecting the decision, on which the likelihood of an error is high, and assign lower confidence ratings on such decisions than monolinguals. This is known as bilingual advantage in metacognitive efficiency. The magnitude of effect is further modulated by typological difference between bilinguals’ languages.
