Hello ENTP's! Which of the three major learning styles (auditory, kinesthetic, and visual) do you prefer and in what order? Thanks!

A brief inventory and learning style description can be found here: Three Different Learning Styles

If you're wondering what I hope to do with the responses, check out this blog post: http://personalitycafe.com/blogs/ran...project-11535/

I hated the questions, but the results make sense. Visual-Kinesthetic-Auditory.

Auditory -> Visual -> Kinesthetic

Learn by doing? More like learn by drooling! amiright??

[LexiFlame]

Visual > Kinesthetic > Auditory


If I'm visually learning, I can analyze the little details better to put to use myself, that's ideal learning for me. Hands on learning is a bit awkward for me unless I've seen it visually beforehand, because I'm very aware of my inexperience. I'd understand it and develop some comfort/confidence afterwards. And auditory is just boring and hard to focus on, I'd quite possibly fall asleep instead of learning anything.

I think it would suck to be blind and a visual learner.

Kinesthetic ≥ Visual | Auditory

Tested as Auditory (6) > Visual (5) = Kinesthetic (5)

But based on experience, I know I can't ever remember shit that's said to me; I really have to write it down. Usually I'm alright with imagining instructions but if it's something I've never done I tend to just apply my own ENTP sense to it (aka. "WTF ARE YOU DOING, WHO TOLD YOU TO DO IT LIKE THAT???"). I'm also generally amazing at ignoring auditory stimuli and forgetting stuff I didn't do. Sometimes I think so hard about doing something that my brain thinks I already did it :S

So really it should be Kinesthetic ≥ Visual > Auditory

[gingertonic]

Auditory > Kinesthetic > Visual, according to my last testing.



But I think it's actually more like Auditory > Visual > Kinesthetic

Thank you all for responding. I should be able to put these responses to good use. Those who are interested in why I posted the poll and what I hope to do with the results should check out the link I edited into the OP.

I'm not sure if "doing problems" counts as kinesthetic or visual. I'd go with kinesthetic since it's "doing" something, but I LEARNED visually...:/

Oh well, I just went with kinesthetic>visual>auditory since kinesthetic represents doing.
