Improving the Reliability of Kolb's Revised Learning Style Inventory
The format of Kolb's Revised Learning Style Inventory (LSI II) was modified to eliminate a probable response bias and to investigate the inventory's subsequent reliability and stability. While internal-consistency estimates for the modified instrument dropped as expected in an initial study, test-retest reliabilities and kappa coefficients increased dramatically. A second study replicated the results of the initial research. The increased stabili…

An Exploratory Examination of the Convergence between the Learning Styles Questionnaire and the Learning Style Inventory II
The Learning Styles Questionnaire (Honey and Mumford, 1979) and the Learning Style Inventory II (Kolb, 1985) were examined for convergence. The correlation between the dimensions of the two instruments ranged from .01 to .22, indicating a relatively low level of congruence. The results from this study were also compared to similar research conducted by Honey and Mumford. The correlations obtained in this study were considerably lower than those r…
The Reliability and Classification Stability of the Learning Style Inventory in Corporate Settings
The Revised Learning Style Inventory (LSI II) was examined for internal consistency, test-retest reliability and stability of the four classifications resulting from the scores of subjects employed in industry. The results from this study were compared to the results of similar research conducted on a student sample (Sims, Veres, Watson, and Buckner, 1986). The internal consistency of the industrial sample was comparable to that of the students. …
The Reliability and Classification Stability of the Learning Style Inventory
The Learning Style Inventory (LSI) and the newly revised Learning Style Inventory (LSI II) were examined for internal consistency, test-retest reliability and stability of the four classifications resulting from their scores. Internal consistency was much improved in the LSI II, but problems with low test-retest indices and classification stability continue to plague the instruments. The authors hypothesize that the observed improvement in intern…
