Abstract

The present study examined the relationship between problem-solving appraisal (problem-solving inventory), various personality styles (Myers–Briggs Type Indicator), and learning strategies. Specifically, it was hypothesized that problem solving appraisal would mediate, fully or partially, the relationship between personality styles and learning strategies. A total of 577 Italian adolescents (187 boys and 390 girls), aged 17–19 years, were involved. Results obtained confirmed that problem-solving appraisal was a significant mediator of the relationship between personality styles and learning strategies. These results have important implications for practice and underscore that specific problem-solving training may improve critical learning strategies for Italian youth with extroversion, intuition, thinking, and judgment personality styles.
