The LASSI (Learning and Study Strategies Inventory) is a 10-scale, 60-item assessment of students’ awareness about and use of learning and study strategies related to skill, will, and self-regulation components of strategic learning. The focus is on both covert and overt thoughts, behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs that relate to successful learning. Research has repeatedly demonstrated that these factors contribute significantly to academic success and that they can be learned or enhanced through educational interventions, such as learning and study skills courses.

You will be asked to respond to 60 statements. To help you decide which responses to select, the following is an explanation of each option.
- By Not at all typical of me, we do not necessarily mean that the statement would never describe you, but that it would be true of you only in rare instances.
- By Not very typical of me, we mean that the statement generally would not be true of you.
- By Somewhat typical of me, we mean that the statement would be true of you about half of the time.
- By Fairly typical of me, we mean that the statement would generally be true of you.
- By Very much typical of me, we do not necessarily mean that the statement would always describe you, but that it would be true of you almost all the time.
After completing all the items and successfully submitting the results, a report will be displayed listing your scores for each scale.
