A study at Potchefstroom University (South Africa) over two academic years investigated changes in study skills and strategies during the first year of university study, and their relationship to academic achievement. Gains in scores on the Learning and Study Strategies Inventory, administered to 306 introductory chemistry students and 201 introductory accounting students, correlated positively with achievement gains.
