Type: article
Abstract: This research is aimed to investigate whether different learning styles affect the academic performance of sixth-grade students at Mehri High School. The study employed a quantitative, quasi-experimental design, using two classes of sixth-grade students at the school (25 in class A and 25 in class B) as a saturated sample. Data was collected using a learning style questionnaire and pre- and post-tests on student learning outcomes. The analysis involved both descriptive and inferential statistics, with the latter utilizing an independent sample t-test, conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics 21 Software. The results revealed a significant difference between the groups. The 2-tailed significance value of 0.045, which is less than 0.05, indicates that learning styles do indeed influence the academic performance of sixth-grade students at Mehri High school. This finding led to the rejection of the null hypothesis (H0) and the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (H1).
