Consistencia entre motivos y estrategias de aprendizaje en estudiantes universitarios

In this research a wide sample of students studying different degrees in Murcia University has been used. Our objective has been to analyse the consistency between the learning motives and the learning strategies employed by university students. It can be observed that there is a tendency to use motives and strategies within the same kind of learning approach. Nevertheless, it has also been observed that students may use strategies which belong to a different approach if forced by external influences.
