Kajian ini bertujuan mengenal pasti pengaruh jantina, gaya kognitif dan personaliti warna terhadap pencapaian akademik pelajar. Kaedah tinjauan berbentuk Cross Sectional digunakan dalam kajian ini. Sampel kajian terdiri daripada 322 orang pelajar yang sedang mengikuti pengajian Diploma di enam fakulti Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI).

Hasil kajian mendapati pelajar lelaki dan perempuan mempunyai gaya kognitif yang sama iaitu Bebas Medan, 2(1,N= 320) = 0.43, p =.511. Namun, kajian menunjukan terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan dari segi jantina pelajar dalam personaliti warna Hijau (t(320) = 1.89, p = .05) dan Emas (t(320) = -2.42, p =.01). Dapatan menunjukan bahawa gaya kognitif pelajar tidak mempunyai perbezaan signifikan dengan pencapaian akademik (t(320) = -.40, p =.685). Walau bagaimanapun, pencapaian.....
