Study Pattern Indicator
Completing the Study Pattern Indicator online questionnaire will give you a personal profile of your learning and motivation preferences.
Nigel Brown, Senior Lecturer within the Business School, is undertaking a study on how students approach their study and what motivates them.
The questionnaire has been designed so that you can complete it without any training. It takes about 30 to 40 minutes to complete and you will immediately receive a personal profile of your thinking and learning patterns. By completing the questionnaire you will be taking part in a major research project.
The completion of this questionnaire is voluntary and the information collected will only be used by the researcher for the purpose mentioned above.
The requirement for you to log in is to enable you to access the questionnaire and allow you to view the feedback and support information. The data collected will in no way be attributed to you as an individual.
Please note that you should use your normal student ID and password combination when you enter the survey
Some of the comments we have received from students who have completed the survey include:
“Brilliant and I want to recommend it to all students.”
“Wow that’s amazing! It’s really accurate in describing my personality! Thank you for this opportunity.”
“I found the questionnaire very interesting and it has given me a different look on how we think and differ in the way we do things.”
