Feeling It: Toward Style as Culturally Structured Intuition
Keith Rhodes
College Composition and Communication, v71 n2 p241-267 2019
A limited mixed-method study revealed that students could alter written style after direct style instruction, but the effect faded quickly. Instead, students reverted to culturally structured intuition to make conscious, contrary choices. Thus, direct instruction in precise forms of style should probably yield to methods that build culturally structured intuition.
