Abstract
This research aimed to analyze the relationship between learning styles and academic performance of social sciences. The study paradigm was positivist, the quantitative approach; the design is non-experimental, transactional and correlational. The sample consisted of 53 tenth grade students of the I.ED Juan José Rondón. To determine the learning styles, the Honey and Alonso CHAEA questionnaire was applied, consisting of 80 items. And for the academic performance the record of social science qualifications and the SAI test was taken as a reference during the second period of 2019. The results indicate that the predominant learning style was reflective. It was also found that there is no significant relationship between learning styles and academic performance in social sciences and the SAI test. It was also determined that there is a positive relationship between these last two variables although at a low level. From the results, it can be concluded that although learning styles are a relevant factor to consider, the academic performance of social sciences could be associated with other variables that converge inside and outside the classroom.
