Learning Styles and Its Association with Academic Performance among Nursing Students

Author(s) Prof. Dr. Biji Joseph
Country India
Abstract Learning styles play a significant role in shaping academic performance among nursing students, who must integrate theoretical knowledge with clinical skills. This study explores the relationship between preferred learning styles—visual, auditory, reading/writing, and kinaesthetic—and students’ academic outcomes. Using a descriptive cross sectional research design was used for the study. Data were collected from nursing students through standardized learning style inventories and academic records. Findings suggest that majority of the nursing students were either graphic (38%) or tangible (38%). Comparison of mean academic performance across different learning-style groups revealed that learners scores were more or less similar for learning styles such as tangible, reading, and graphic (72.8%,72.1%, 72.3%). There was a slight fall in academic percentage (68.56%) among aural learners. There was no significant association found between learning styles and academic performance (χ² = 6.28, df = 3, p > 0.05). Hence, no single learning style guarantees academic success; rather, adaptability and the use of blended strategies are key factors. The study highlights the importance of aligning teaching methods with diverse learning preferences to enhance student engagement and performance. Incorporating varied instructional approaches, such as simulations, lectures, and interactive activities, can support holistic learning and better prepare nursing students for professional practice.
