arXiv:2510.03259v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent research on reasoning models explores the meta-awareness of language models, including their ability to determine optimal thinking duration, recognize knowledge boundaries, and structure concept-level thinking. While current large reasoning models depend solely on answer-based verification, we show that adding meta-awareness objectives leads to significant performance gains over models without such meta-knowledge. MAPR (Meta-Awareness via Predictive Reward) utilizes a self-generated task of predicting rollout statistics - specifically
