Abstract:
The aim of this study was to examine the associations between occupational therapy students' learning conceptions, preferences for teaching, and approaches to studying. The deep learning concept was associated with deep and strategic approaches to learning. The student preference for the teaching-style "transmitting information" was associated with a surface approach to learning. Understanding the interrelationships between students' learning concepts, teaching preferences, and study approaches may provide incentive for faculty members to think about novel approaches to teaching. While occupational therapy faculty members should encourage a deep learning concept and stimulate students' linking of ideas, they may need to modify their teaching style to accommodate surface-oriented students' needs.

Cognitive Learning
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Steps in the Modeling Process
Attention is the first necessary component for observational learning. It involves focusing on what the model is doing and saying. For example, if you decide to take a drawing class to enhance your skills, you need to pay close attention to the instructor's words and hand movements. The characteristics of the model significantly...
