Impact of Adults' Preferred Learning Styles and Perception of Barriers on Completion of External Baccalaureate Degree Programs

Multivariate analyses identified significant differences in both learning styles and perceived barriers of completers and noncompleters. No relation-ship was determined between students' preferred learning styles and perception of barriers to completion of an external baccalaureate degree. Additional multivariate studies focusing on motivation, expectancy, and locus of control seem indicated. Abstract Des analyses multifactorielles ont discerne des differences significatives entre les etudiants sortants et les demissionnaires quant aux styles d'apprentissage et aux entraves percues. Aucun lien n'a ete etabli entre les styles d'apprentissage privilegies par l'etudiant et sa perception d'entraves a l'achevement d'un programme externe de baccalaureat. Des etudes multifactorielles supplementaires axees sur la motivation, l'expectative et le lieu de controle semblent indiquees.
