- Abstract
This study aimed to identify Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic (VAK) learning styles of clinical and nonclinical samples, to check the relationship between VAK learning styles and clinical factors, demographic variables. Two central questions were addressed: 1) Could there be a variation in learning styles between the nonclinical and clinical samples? 2) Is there a gender and age difference in the VAK learning styles of the nonclinical and clinical samples? These were achieved by evaluating 33 senior high school students (nonclinical samples), 13 males and 20 females, and 14 individuals (clinical samples), 5 males and 9 females. The self-designed Learning Style Assessment Test and Learning Modalities Dominance Index were used during the process. It demonstrates that, with the exception of visual learning style, nonclinical and clinical characteristics have an effect on auditory and kinesthetic learning styles; in both nonclinical and clinical populations, there’s no significant association between VAK learning styles and demographic characteristics. Based on the findings thus far, learning styles under clinical factors may be qualitatively different, and that psychiatry and otorhinolaryngology-audiology could be joined for treatment. More ramifications of the present results are being investigated for future research, along with teaching and treatment method design. The development of new treatment diagnoses and therapy regimens, while also their clinical relevance, are still poorly understood, necessitating more research.
