Intellectual styles are individuals' preferred ways of using the
abilities that they possess. The extent to which one can change his
or her intellectual style is a question of interest to both
researchers and the general public. This book presents the first
comprehensive and systematic review of existing research on the
malleability of intellectual styles. By critically analyzing
research findings derived from both cross-sectional and
longitudinal investigations performed over the past seven decades,
Li-fang Zhang demonstrates that intellectual styles can be modified
through both socialization and purposeful training. Professor Zhang
elucidates the heuristic value of these findings for the
development of adaptive intellectual styles in both academic and
non-academic settings. She proposes further avenues of research
that might advance scholarly understanding of the nature of and the
potential for modifying intellectual styles.
