Kolb Learning Style Inventory (LSI)

The LSI assesses learning preferences and teaches how to expand learning flexibility. While most widely used among college-age and adult populations, the Kolb instrument has been used in research with students down to grade five (in Dubai, sample of over 700, see Abosalem, 2013: https://bspace.buid.ac.ae/handle/1234/511).  A modified version has been used in Thailand with students as young as first grade (Buaraphan, Asian Social Sciencee; Vol. 11, no. 10, 2015).

Interpersonal Reactivity Index

This assessment measures four scales that each represent a facet of empathy: perspective-taking, empathic concern, personal distress, and fantasy (ability to imagine oneself in another's situation). This instrument has been widely used at the secondary school level (roughly ages 12-18) and a simplified version exists which has been used with learners as young as seven years old. (For more information on this simplified version, consult: Hawk, S. T., Keijsers, L., Branje, S. J., Graaff, J. V. D., Wied, M. D., & Meeus, W. (2013). Examining the interpersonal reactivity index (IRI) among early and late adolescents and their mothers. Journal of personality assessment, 95(1), 96-106.)

Curiosity and Exploration Inventory (CEI-II)

This is a seven-question instrument, which uses a seven-point Likert scale to measure two dimensions of curiosity: appetite for novelty, and "absorbtion," e.g. the desire to want to "dig deeper" and learn more about a topic, person, activity, etc.  Absorption is also sometimes known in the literature, particularly in technology-related fields,  as "flow."

Nonverbal Communication Reflection Form

The instrument, a short checklist, was created for use in clinical professional assessment of athletic trainers and/or health-care professionals or for self-assessment by the health professional. It covers "bedside manner," tone of voice, facial expression, posture, zone of proximity, and distracting or negative body language. Although created primarily for use in clinical health-related professions, it may also have some value for use in STEM lab partnerships, shared office spaces and/or conflict resolution situations.
