An Empirical Study of the Relationship between Cognitive Style and the Use of Communicative Strategy.
Littlemore, Jeannette
Applied Linguistics, v22 n2 p241-65 Jun 2001
Tests the hypothesis that holistic students tend to use communication strategies that are based on holistic comparison, and analytic students tend to use strategies that are based on description and segmental perspectives. Suggests that individual differences in patterns of communication strategy usage can be attributed in part to cognitive style. (Author/VWL)
