However, the distribution of Kolb’s Learning Styles across individuals from different family backgrounds, as well as the association between Kolb’s Learning Style and family background has not yet been reported in a population of college students. Participants (n=108) completed a demographic and family background questionnaire and the Honey and Mumford’s Learning Styles Questionnaire (LSQ). The distribution of Learning Styles was characterized, together with the association between Learning Style and family background, using descriptive statistics and bivariate correlation analysis. These results show that the distribution of Learning Styles across a cohort of college students was consistent with previous findings. In addition, these findings also point to an association between Learning Style and family background, and as such, college students’ preferences for learning style may be related to their family background. These findings have definite reference value for future research in this field‎. %U https://japer.in/article/the-distribution-of-kolbrsquos-learning-style-in-college-students-from-different-family-background-pqpxikugtd6ipw0
