Introduction: The main goal of an education system in any country is to facilitate learning, influenced by factors such as intelligence, motivation, supportive environments, family and social dynamics, educational standards, and the quality of teachers. This research investigated the relationship between learning styles and the mental well-being of students in nursing and midwifery programs.
Materials & Methods: In 2024, 194 nursing and midwifery students at Ilam University of Medical Sciences participated in this cross-sectional study. The VARK Learning Styles Questionnaire, the Subjective Vitality Scale (SVS), and a demographic form were employed to gather data. The questionnaires were submitted by all participants, who met the inclusion criteria. The instruments' validity and reliability were verified in previous research. Using descriptive statistics, correlation tests, and multiple linear regression with a significance level of p < 0.05, the data were analyzed in SPSS version 22.
Results: A significant proportion of students exhibited a dominant learning style characterized by visual preferences, accounting for 31.4% of the population. The subsequent styles were reading/writing, auditory, and kinesthetic. The average score of students' mental vitality was 25.65, accompanied by a standard deviation of 4.20, suggesting a relatively positive level of mental vitality among the participants. The most significant correlation between mental vitality and visual style was observed (r = 0.39), followed by kinesthetic, auditory, and reading/writing styles in that order.
Conclusion: Medical education system administrators are advised to consider students' chosen learning styles and provide training for professors via educational workshops to transform existing methodologies and enhance students' cognitive engagement.
