HERRERA CIFUENTES, Myriam Fabiola e ZAPATA CASTANEDA, Pedro Nel. Correlational study of learning styles of students in science model. Rev. Fac. Cienc. Tecnol. [online]. 2012, n.31, pp.27-43. ISSN 0121-3814.
This article shows the results of a research study in which a group of secondary school students learning style was identified based on the models of learning styles proposed by Kolb (1984), Alonso, Gallego and Honey (1994) and Grasha (1996). Once identified the predominant learning style in each of the participants based on the proposed instruments for this purpose, the researchers examined whether there was a correlation between the various categories of learning styles proposed by each of the models mentioned above. The results do not show preference for a unique style of learning in each of the studied models. High percentages of preferences were obtained by the active style according to the model of Alonso, Gallego and Honey, assimilating style, according to the model of Kolb and participatory style based on Grasha´s model, but the percentages obtained are not representative enough for this population. After obtaining the values of correlation between each of the learning styles proposed in each model through the Goodman and Kruskal's Lambda coefficient for nominal variables, it was found that the correlation values are virtually negligible, results that would confirm, to some extent, the independence of each of the analyzed models.
