Do Students' Style Preferences Differ by Grade Level, Orientation toward College, and Academic Major?

Emanuel, Richard C.; Potter, W. James

Research in Higher Education, v33 n3 p395-414 Jun 1992

Adolescents (n=327) in grades 8-12 and college students (n=235) completed questionnaires measuring their preferred learning styles (dependent, independent, competitive, collaborative, and participative) and their preferences for teacher communicator styles (e.g., open, attentive, relaxed, precise, friendly, dominant). College students exhibited differences in preferences from the adolescents and across majors. (Author/DB)
