The Influence of Cognitive Style on Self-Regulated Learning Ability of College Students

Abstract

This study examined the relationship between cognitive style and self-regulated learning ability among 232 college students from colleges and universities in Hebei Province, China. The analysis revealed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.735, p < 0.01) between cognitive style and self-regulated learning ability. The finding supports previous research emphasizing the influence of cognitive style on learning outcomes. Educators can utilize this knowledge to design instructional strategies that cater to individual cognitive styles, enhancing students' self-regulated learning.
