摘要
This study explores the contribution of motivation and learning styles as predictors of engineering students' academic performance. French engineering students (211 postgraduates) completed the Herrmann's Brain Dominance Instrument and a scale of academic motivation. Hierarchical regression analyses indicate that academic performance increases when students are intrinsically motivated and their preferences for interactive processes, divergent thinking and creativity are weak.
