| ''Does a student's preference for a teacher's instructional style matter? An analysis of an economic approach'' |
| ( 2010, Vol. 30 No.2 ) |

| The hypothesis that a student's preference for a teacher's instructional style indirectly affects a student's grade performance positively and significantly is posed and accepted. In this analysis, one additional higher scale used to indicate student preferences for a teacher's instructional style is estimated to indirectly enhance students' grade performance by 2.302 points; a 1% increase in a student's rating of preference for a teacher's instructional style is estimated to lead to a 1.2039% improvement in a student's grade performance. |
