Responses to the Learning Process Questionnaire (Biggs, 1992) of three hundred one 14 to 15 year old Malaysian students were compared both to those of three hundred one older peers and to those of like age samples of Australian and Hong Kong junior high school students reported by Biggs (1992). The Malaysian (and the Hong Kong) students tended to report deeper level learning motivation and strategies than the Australians. This supported earlier research questioning the "Asian learner as a rote learner" stereotype. The older Malaysians and the females were more likely to report utilizing superficial learning strategies. Further research using culture as a unit of analysis will be necessary to determine whether these findings are due to significant differences in cultural dimensions such as individualism collectivism and masculinity-femininity.
