The Influence of Cognitive Styles on the Effectiveness of a Multimedia Tutor.

Crosby, Martha E.; Iding, Marie K.

Computer Assisted Language Learning, v10 n4 p375-86 Sep 1997

A study with 45 high school seniors investigated the relationship between performance in a computer-based 10-lesson science tutorial program and students' Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) profiles. Results indicate performance differences in the program's two phases (knowledge acquisition and knowledge application) for all MBTI scales, suggesting the MBTI can provide useful information for designing intelligent tutor programs.
