From our study, we believe that even though there were limited significant differences among learning preference groups in the present study, that MBTI offers a good method for discerning student learning preferences. It appears that students who make decisions by Thinking do better in a self-study format than do students who make decisions Intuitively. We do believe that in order to make better use of MBTI to modify teaching and learning to benefit students it may be necessary to develop more diverse delivery and assessment methods. We did learn that regardless of learning style preferences, students preferred an objective style of assessment based on their performance.
