摘要: Abstract This study aimed at investigating: (a) the psychometric properties of Kolb's LSI-1985 in a Greek sample pre-service and in-service teachers (N = 338), (b) group differences their learning styles (c) possible relations between participants' metacognitive knowledge about frequency using various problem-solving strategies. To assess knowledge, participants were asked to estimate how frequently they use five general strategies (brainstorming, analogy, etc.) three different settings (interpersonal, practical problems). The results present extend critique regarding construct validity LSI-1985. Moreover, most cases no significant modes found teachers. Finally, few rather small correlations problem solving.
