PEPS Learning Style Inventory             

 

 


The comprehensive Productivity Environmental Preference Survey (PEPS) identifies 20 different components of learning style.  It identifies the conditions under which an adult is most likely to produce, achieve, create, solve problems, make decisions and learn in occupational or educational activities.  These are the 20 factors identified by the PEPS: 

Immediate Environment

  • Sound

  • Temperature

  • Light

  • Design (formal or informal)

  Emotional Factors

  • Motivation

  • Responsibility

  • Persistence

  • Structure or Flexibility

Sociological Needs

  • Alone or peer oriented

  • Authority oriented

  • Flexible

 
Perceptual Preferences
  • Auditory
  • Visual
  • Tactile
  • Kinesthetic

 

 Physical Needs
  • Intake
  • Evening/Morning
  • Late morning
  • Afternoon
  • Mobility
  

The PEPS is integrated into the online e-text, CollegeScope, and is available for use with the printed text, College and Career Success, by using the online access code printed on the inside front cover of the text. 

The PEPS has been researched and developed for 30 years by Gary Price, Professor Emeritus, University of Kansas.
