Med Teach. 2002 Nov;24(6):648-9. doi: 10.1080/01421590216082.

Abstract

The authors found that students who exhibited passive learning behavior (i.e. early and consistent signs of being disengaged during formal, curriculum-based interactive activities) were at greater risk of experiencing academic difficulty during the first two years of medical school.
