The study examined the effects of a study skills training intervention course on
U.S. Air Force Aeromedical Apprentices with five main purposes. The first was to
examine the relationship between study skills training and the number of times students
required academic interventions outside of normal class time. The second purpose was to
examine the relationship between study skills training and end of course averages. The
third was to determine the relationship between study skills training and the amount of
additional instruction, measured in time, students required. The fourth purpose examined
the relationship between study skills training and graduation rates. The final purpose was
to recommend areas for further research.
The population for this study consisted of 250 male and female enlisted Air Force
Aeromedical students at the U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine at San
Antonio, Texas. Subjects were randomly selected into a control and a treatment group.
No significant differences existed between the control and the treatment groups at the
p<0.05 level of significance prior to the beginning of the study.
Statistically significant post experiment findings indicated that students who
received study skills training required fewer academic interventions outside of normal
class time, achieved significantly higher end of course scores and required less time in
