Lee, Cynthia; Yeung, Alexander Seeshing; Ip, Tiffany – Computer Assisted Language Learning, 2016
Computer technology provides spaces and locales for language learning. However, learning style preference and demographic variables may affect the effectiveness of technology use for a desired goal. Adapting Reid's pioneering Perceptual Learning Style Preference Questionnaire (PLSPQ), this study investigated the relations of university students'…

Age Differences in Visual and Kinesthetic Short-Term Memory
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Jordan, Tim – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1978
Thirty elderly subjects (mean age 70 years) were matched with 30 young Ss (mean age 20 years) and tested on a kinesthetic short-term memory task which required the replication of criterion moves after a variable retention interval under conditions of either rest, differing interpolated movement tasks, or mental activity.

A Study of a Possible Relationship Between Lowenfeld's Visual-Haptic Theory and Piaget's Developmental Theory.
Butzow, John W.; Schlenker, Richard M. – 1978
This study was designed to determine the relationship between the Lowenfeldian visual-haptic (perceptual) and the Piagetian concrete-formal (operational reasoning) continua. The study also investigated the relationship between age, sex, academic goal, academic preference, and a person's perceptual aptitude or intellectual reasoning abilities.…

Age Differences in the Relationship between Visual Movement Imagery and Performance on Kinesthetic Acuity Tests.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Livesey, David J. – Developmental Psychology, 2002
Investigated the relationship between Vividness of Movement Imagery Questionnaire scores and kinesthetic acuity--the sense of body position and movement--among 10- and 14-year-olds. Found that in the older group, those with high levels of visual movement imagery performed better on measures of kinesthetic acuity; no such effect was found for…
