Abstract

BLANCO ALIAGA, Manuel Roberto. Learning styles and attitudes toward the scientific investigation in university students. Investig. desarro. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.2, pp.82-99. ISSN 0121-3261.  https://doi.org/10.14482/indes.25.2.10960.

This work's purpose is to establish the association between the variables learning styles and attitudes toward scientific research in university students. It is a descriptive correlational study, with a population of 1,513 and a sample of 195 university students of the various professional careers of the Hermilio Valdizán National University of Huánuco - Peru. They were evaluated with Kolb's Inventory of Learning Styles IEA and the Scale of Attitudes toward Scientific Research EAHIC. The results obtained with the chi-squared x2 show that there is a degree of significant correlation, with a contingency coefficient c = 0.62. Finally, it was discovered that the divergent learning style is dominant in the sample, so was the uncaring attitude toward scientific research.

Keywords : learning styles; individual learning; scientific research; scientific attitudes.
