RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LEARNING APPROACHES, PERSONALITY FACTORS AND THE CRAMMING PHENOMENON

The aim of the research is to explore the potential relationships between learning approaches as a possible mediator of the cramming phenomenon and the role of personality factors overlearning approaches. The research design was constructed based on the contributions regarding the relationship between cognitive psychology and learning (Santrock, 2001; Maddux & Gosselin,2003), models of learning approaches (Entwistle, 1987; Biggs et al., 2001), personality factors (Ashton & Lee, 2007, 2018), and studies on the cramming phenomenon (William & Sommer, 2010;Bickerdike et al., 2016; Geller et al., 2018).
