Abstract :
Research shows that one of the individual characteristics of learners that affects the educational interventions effectiveness is the learning style of learners. Learning styles is one of the interesting research fields in behavioral sciences; Therefore, due to the increasing amount of research in the learning styles field, it is necessary to conduct combined research in this field. This research was carried out by the meta-analysis method with the aim of numerically combining the quantitative results of researches in this field. The research population is all post-graduate theses and articles in the field of the relationship between learning styles and academic achievement indicators in the country between 1371 and 1401 years. From the initial 189 studies, 98 cases were included in the meta-analysis based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and 384 effect sizes were obtained from these studies. The results showed that the summary effect size of learning styles with academic achievement was .19, although subsequent analyzes showed that the effect size is different in learning styles various. The largest effect size is related to Jackson's style profile and the smallest effect size is related to Fleming's styles with academic achievement indicators. The implications of this meta-analysis show the relatively low impact of learning styles on academic achievement and emphasize the need to investigate the role of mediating variables in the relationship between these two variables.
