I've been doing some reading on Kolb's inventory and so far I note that the inventory is meant for use by teens and adults.

"The most relevant information for the learner is about intra-individual differences, his or her relative preference for the four learning modes, not the inter-individual comparisons." (Hay Group Tech Specs for LSI)

The down side for me is the language used to describe each of the four learning styles on the link provided ---I'm struggling with the boxes and language like "fret over conflicts" being tied to "take experiences and think deeply about them" and "are generally influenced by other people." Makes the diverger sound like a deep thinker who is never the less influenced by others and fretting over conflicts. How do they get anything done or have a thought of their own?

Clearly, I've got some issues wth learning style inventories---I'm going to read some more about Kolb.
