•Older schizophrenia patients had an overall memory deficit.•The relation between monitoring and control in a sample of older schizophrenia patients.•Older schizophrenia patients were able to evaluate their judgments of learning accurately.•Older schizophrenia patients were not able to adapt their learning time.
The aim was to study metamemory during encoding in older schizophrenia patients. Thirteen older patients were compared to 13 healthy controls.
