This study aimed to investigate the impact of style of learning and thinking on divergent production abilities among adolescents, as well as to compare these variables between males and females. Given the lack of exploration around here, the motivation behind this paper was the assessment of the connection amongst both the variables. A sample of approximately 100 adolescents, 50 of whom were female and 50 of whom were male were selected for the study. They were selected from Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) in India and ranged in age from 15-19 years purposively; they did not have any mental or physical disabilities, were regular school or college going adolescents, had nearly identical socioeconomic backgrounds. Descriptive-regression methodology was employed, utilizing quantitative data collection and analysis techniques. The data was gathered using the "Style of Learning and Thinking" and "Divergent Production Abilities" scales, along with a demographic form. The results of regression analysis revealed that there was no significant impact of style of learning and thinking on divergent production abilities among adolescents. Furthermore, gender differences were examined in relation to both style of learning and thinking and divergent production abilities. The findings indicated that there were no significant gender differences in style of learning and thinking, as well as in divergent production abilities, among male and female adolescents. The study suggests that style of learning and thinking may not be a significant predictor of divergent production abilities in this population.
