Descrição
Resumo:The present study has as objective to evidence the discriminant factors relative to the learning styles of accounting students at UFMS-CPTL.The application of Kolb’s method revealed that the assimilating learning style predominated in the sample investigated. Such finding corroborates other studies in the field. Discriminant analysis indicated that the most discriminant variables in the groups were (1) the quantity of failed courses; (2) the hours of study a week; followed by (3) the practice area; and (4) gender.
