The Learning Styles Questionnaire (Honey and Mumford, 1979) and the Learning Style Inventory II (Kolb, 1985) were examined for convergence. The correlation between the dimensions of the two instruments ranged from .01 to .22, indicating a relatively low level of congruence. The results from this study were also compared to similar research conducted by Honey and Mumford. The correlations obtained in this study were considerably lower than those reported by Honey and Mumford, contradicting previous comparisons of instruments measuring learning style (Kirby, 1979). Psychometric difficulties associated with both instruments are discussed as impediments to establishing construct validity, along with directions for future research.
