Impact of Agreeableness & Conscientiousness on Students' Choice of Learning Environment & Academic Performance: Results

  • Conscientiousness was a strong indicator of academic success, regardless of learning environment.
  • Highly conscientious students were more likely to choose online courses.
  • However, the relationship between conscientiousness and grade was not mediated by choice of environment.
  • Students who chose online courses had slightly higher final grades.
  • Generally, extraversion was not found to be a significant predictor of choice of environment, although there was weak evidence to suggest students low on extraversion were more likely to choose online courses.
  • Students low on agreeableness were more likely to choose online courses.
