q3 · i? · review · r2
Framework counts across the 17 empirical studies (Table 3) show Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory in three studies (Andrews 2021; Lee 2017; Meyers & Arnold 2016); nine other frameworks each appeared once. The review notes many domestic programs rely on Kolb for development and evaluation.
"Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory (Kolb, 1984) was adopted in three studies, which was the most widely utilized theory and the only one used in more than one study."
