APTITUDE LEVEL AND CONSUMER ACCEPTANCE OF PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION

Abstract

The study was undertaken to answer the question of whether students of different aptitude levels have different attitudes toward programmed instruction. Navy and Marine students at the Aviation Mechanical Fundamentals School, Class A, were given an attitude survey covering various aspects of programmed instruction. The students were then divided into four aptitude groups on the basis of their General Classification Test or Verbal Expression Test scores. The results indicated that all four groups had favorable reactions toward programmed instruction. However, no differences in attitudes were detected between students of different aptitude levels.
