- Abstract
-
The study was conducted to explore effects of learning styles of Business
Administration students on their academic performance. Sample consisted of 353 students of
Business Administration at Masters’ Level. Data were collected through Kolb’s Learning Style
Inventory, and past two semesters’ examination results of respondent students. Data were
analysed through Percentage, One-way ANOVA, and Independent Sample T –test. Findings
revealed that there was a significant effect of learning styles of Business Administration students
on their academic performance. The divergent learners scored highest among Business
administration students. However demographic variables like gender, geographic location,
mothers’ and fathers’ academic qualification, and parents’ monthly income did not have any
significant effect on learning styles of students of Business Administration. - Downloads
