Rosenbloom (2013) gave reasons why Computing should be considered as a fourth great domain of science, along with the Physical sciences, Life sciences, and Social sciences. This paper adapts Rosenbloom’s ‘metascience expression language’ to support descriptions and comparison of metascience and metacognition, and discusses the similarity of metascience
