It seems to me that the only relevant question, Nancy, is "Does it?" (confirm the existence of learning styles). Confirming isn't the same as proving, of course. Is the study well designed? Does it operationalize well? Does it get believable results and are they well-interpreted? Whatever your and my personal conclusions about the topic might be, perhaps this person has looked at it from a novel angle. Perhaps s/he has found something worth considering. Perhaps s/he has just gotten "lucky" with p-values (in which case, no harm, nor foul, it will all come out in the wash). Chris --- Christopher D.
