Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the academic self-discipline and preferred learning styles of the nuclear medicine technology students of DLSMHSI during the conduct of home-based alternative learning modalities. Data gathering was done during the first semester of A.Y. 2021-2022 with follow-ups during the second semester of the same A.Y. This study used a descriptive quantitative design and data were gathered using two fully adopted questionnaires, the free-to-use self-regulation questionnaire by Brown, Miller, & Lawendowski (1999), and the free assessment tool of the VAK Learning Style by Victoria Chislett MSc & A. Chapman (2005). The gathered data were treated using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and chi-square. The findings of the study reveal that most of the respondents are 18-19 years of age, female, and are currently in the first-year level. The majority of the respondents have low academic self-discipline, poor planning and implementation are seen as the major problems. Moreover, most of the respondents are auditory learners, but visual and kinaesthetic learners are not far behind. The results show that some respondents adopt certain learning styles that may not be suited to online learning. The results also show that there is no significant difference in the academic selfdiscipline and preferred learning style during HBALMS among nuclear medicine technology students when grouped according to age, sex, and year level.
