Abstract :
The study reported herein considered three questionnaires available for assessing learning styles, viz., Kolb, Honey-Alonso, and Felder-Soloman. The questionnaires were implemented in a spreadsheet with automated results, and distributed to subjects of both genders, and varying age, and academic background. The aim of the work was to determine which questionnaire, if any, would be preferred by respondents. The respondents were asked to answer all three questionnaires, examine the results and indicate their satisfaction by grading each result, using a scale between 0 and 10. While the results given by each questionnaire do not allow a complete comparison, partial agreement was possible to identify. Answers provided by 52 respondents have been processed, which show that, while there is no statistically significant difference among the preference of respondents regarding the three options, a slight preference for the Felder-Soloman questionnaire is discernible.
