The problem of this study was to determine the differences on selected variables between who prefer a lecture-test learning approach and those who prefer a lecture-contingency management learning approach after experience with both learning systems in an introductory psychology course. The purposes were 1) to compare personality characteristics of self-concept and reward expectancies between students who select a lecture-contingency management and those who select a lecture-test learning approach; 2) to determine the effect on academic achievement of preference for a lecture-contingency management versus a lecture-test learning approach; and 3) to compare age, grade point average, and previous instructional experience between students who choose a lecture-contingency management and those who choose a lecture-test learning approach after experience with both approaches of students in an introductory psychology course in a metropolitan community college.
