Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to compare the learning strategies of students in different academic fields in higher education. Previous research has limited its focus to comparing students on topics such as the degree of social responsibility, personal values, academic dishonesty/integrity, and emotional intelligence. In contrast, this study addresses the issue of whether the learning strategies of business students are better than those of students from other academic fields. To date, our knowledge and understanding of this issue are limited even though the topic of learning strategies has gained considerable attention in educational research. This research applied the Learning and Study Strategies Inventory (LASSI) to elucidate the differences in study strategies between groups of students. Findings from the statistical analysis indicate that business students have more effective learning strategies than the non-business students included in this study. Potential reasons for these findings are discussed and based on these findings theoretical and practical implications are viewed.
