Four learning strategies negatively impacted learning gain in adult trainees. Learning anxiety explained this pattern, with less anxious individuals benefiting more from strategies. Further research should include anxiety and diverse settings.

Area of Science:

  • Adult learning
  • Educational psychology
  • Workplace training

Background:

  • Learning strategies are crucial for knowledge acquisition.
  • Previous research often focuses on traditional academic settings.
  • The role of anxiety in strategy effectiveness is under-explored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between specific learning strategies and learning gain in adult technical trainees.
  • To determine the influence of learning anxiety on the effectiveness of learning strategies.
  • To explore the interaction between learning strategies and anxiety in predicting knowledge change.

Main Methods:

  • Study conducted on adult technical trainees.
  • Measured learning gain, learning anxiety, learning ability, and learning motivation.

  • Analyzed associations between four learning strategies (Rehearsal, Interpersonal Help-seeking, Emotion Control, Motivation Control) and learning gain.
  • Examined the moderating effect of learning anxiety on strategy-learning gain relationships.

    • Main Results:

    • Four learning strategies were negatively associated with learning gain.
    • Learning anxiety accounted for these negative associations.
    • Learning strategies interacted with learning anxiety; less anxious individuals showed more positive strategy-learning associations.
    • Learning ability and motivation did not account for the observed pattern.

    Conclusions:

    • Learning anxiety significantly influences the effectiveness of learning strategies in adult technical training.
    • Interventions should consider managing learning anxiety alongside strategy instruction.
    • Future research should incorporate anxiety and investigate diverse learning environments beyond academia.
