The Relationship of Cognitive Style and Instructional Style to the Learning Performance of Undergraduate Students.
MacNeil, Richard D.
Journal of Educational Research, v73 n6 p354-59 Jul-Aug 1980

Research suggests that field dependence or independence does not significantly interact with expository or discovery teaching styles to heighten achievement. (Author/CMJ)
