Relationship of personality traits with degree of subjective learning and satisfaction in different class formats among Japanese university students

要旨

Abstract In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent shift to online instruction, many universities have been exploring hybrid approaches that leverage the benefits of both face-to-face and online learning. In this study, we examined the relationship of personality traits with degree of subjective learning and satisfaction in different class formats among Japanese university students. The results revealed that loneliness and extraversion were associated with evaluations of face-to-face classes, while self-control, anxiety about conversations with classmates, and anxiety about speaking and giving presentations were associated with evaluations of real-time interactive classes. Computer anxiety and anxiety about speaking and giving presentations were related to evaluations of on-demand classes. These findings suggest that the different personality traits of university students may influence their degree of subjective learning and satisfaction depending on the class format.
