Abstract

Research has shown learning styles to be one of the factors that
influences students’ motivation to learn a language. As such, this study
attempts to replicate a study by Reid (1987) to identify the learning style
preferences of students. This was accomplished by administering Reid’s
(1987) Perceptual Learning Style Preference questionnaire (PLSP) to 104
students of SMK Padang Temu, in Melaka. The results of this study show that
there are differences in learning styles according to gender and grade
achieved. This study also shows that there is a difference between the group
learning style and grades received in a standardized test. The study has
concluded that there is a connection between learning styles, gender and
grades.
