Although learner reaction measures are increasingly shown to be insufficient indicators of training effectiveness and impact, they are still highly over-used in practice. New research on transfer of learning is contributing to a better understanding of how reaction measures may relate to important HRD [human resource development] outcomes. This study explored the relationship between learner utility reactions and predictors of learning transfer as operationalised in the Learning Transfer System Inventory. A limited correlation between participant reaction measures and predictors of learning transfer was found. However, the results of this study continue to raise questions about the role and value of reaction measures.
