This investigation assesses the validity of the Problem Solving Style Questionnaire's (PSSQ) two subscales (abstractness/concreteness and action/reflection). Confirmatory factor analyses with the PSSQ and Honey and Mumford's (1982) Learning Styles Questionnaire provide support for the convergent and discriminant validity of the PSSQ. Although further examination of the psychometric properties of the PSSQ is warranted, the PSSQ represents an encouraging alternative to other measures of learning style.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
