This paper refers to the thesis entitled Learning Styles and the Use of Information and Communication Technologies, defended in the Doctoral Program in Psychology of the Pontifical Catholic University of Campinas. Briefly, it presents the sequence of four studies developed in the thesis: (1) construction of an assessment instrument (scale) and search for evidence of validity based on content; (2) pilot study for scale computerization and computerized scale function test; (3) search for evidence of validity based on internal structure; and (4) comparison of the learning styles of business university students. The studies resulted in the development of an evaluation instrument and the proposition of a learning style model in technology use situations, composed by the theoretical, pragmatic, interaction with the medium and interaction through the medium styles.
