Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı, lise öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerini yordayıcı etkisinin olup olmadığını incelemektir. Bu amaçla lise öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerini ne oranda açıkladığının belirlenmesi hedeflenmektedir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, Uşak ilinde orta öğretim kurumlarından tesadüfi örnekleme yöntemi ile üç liseden seçilen 271 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilen Eleştirel Düşünme Eğilimleri Ölçeği ve Grasha-Reichmann tarafından geliştirilen ve Koçak (2007) tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan Öğrenme Stilleri Ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, lise öğrencilerinin öğrenme stillerinden sistemli çalışma eğilimi, öğretmene bağımlılık ve sınıf içi işbirliği stillerinin nedensellik, meraklılık ve açık fikirlilik eğilimlerini anlamlı bir şekilde yordadığı, rekabetçi öğrenme stilinin eleştirel düşünme eğilimlerinin hiç birisini yordamadığı tespit edilmiştir.
