| Description | Self-directed learning as a topic began to come to the attention of experts in the field of adult education in the 1960s. As well at that time, its relatively intensive research begins. The aim of this text is to map the methods used in the empirical study of self-directed learning. For this purpose, the analysis of empirically focused articles published in the International Journal of Self-Directed Learning, the only journal specializing in the issue, was carried out as well as in two other journals, Adult Education Quarterly (AEQ) and International Journal of Lifelong Education (IJLE). The result of the analysis of a total of 99 empirically focused texts published in the above-mentioned journals is the basic overview of instruments that can be used in the study of self-directed learning, namely (a) in both quantitative and qualitative research design and (b) in the study of self-directed learning as a process and self-direction as an attribute of a personality. |
