The ability to perform movement imagery has been shown to influence motor performance and learning in sports and rehabilitation. Self-report questionnaires have been developed to assess movement imagery ability in adults, such as the Movement Imagery Questionnaire 3 (MIQ-3); however, there is a dearth of developmentally appropriate measures for use with children. To address this gap, the focus ...

A system for haptic (i.e. kinesthetic and cutaneous) stimulation of the hand is described. While our immediate application involves display of speech information, a number of other man-machine interface applications may be feasible, including force-feedback devices for computer interaction and human pattern extraction from multiple datastreams. Our work is motivated by the observation that devi...

background: despite the implementation of new training programs, neglecting individual differences in terms of learning styles can be taken into account as one of the reasons for poor levels of self-care behaviors in patients suffering from diabetes. aim: the purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of training according to the learning styles on self-care behaviors among individu...

Educational researchers postulate that every individual has a different learning style. The aim of this descriptive study was to determine the learning styles of first-year medical students using the Turkish version of the visual, auditory, read-write, kinesthetic (VARK) questionnaire. This study was performed at the Department of Medical Education of Erciyes University in February 2006. The Tu...

Gaya pembelajaran adalah cara bagaimana pelajar menyerap dan menyusun maklumat yang diterima. Pendekatan gaya secara umum terbahagi kepada tiga aspek; visual, auditori kinestetik. Pertama, belajar paling berkesan ketika melihat dengan media gambar. Kedua auditorial, melalui suara didengar. Maka pendengaran mendengar. Pelajar ini lebih dominan menggunakan deria menjalankan proses pengajaran. vis...

The purpose of this study was to describe the types student errors in solving problems based on Newman Error Analysis (NEA) terms learning styles, namely visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. This type research uses qualitative-descriptive research. technique used collect data fill out a style questionnaire, problem tests, interviews, documentation then triangulated obtain valid data. results show...

INTRODUCTION VARK is a questionnaire which was developed by Neil Fleming (www.vark.learn.com), who was a teacher and an educator in New Zealand, with respect to the perceptual preferences in learning. V stands for Visual- the students learn best from pictures, graphs and diagrams. A stand for Aural - the students learn best from spoken words, lectures and discussions. R stands for Reading - the...

A general model for a sensory-aid communication system is proposed which contains a source, sensor, processor, display, sensor channels, and user. The coding, display, and control aspects of this model are discussed in relation to communication via the tactile and kinesthetic senses. Two hypothetical methods of obtaining high information rates are proposed. In one method, the system recodes the...

The aim of this study was to measure and compare kinesthetic sensitivity in children with developmental coordination disorder (DCD) and typically developing (TD) children between 6 and 11 years old. 30 children with DCD aged 6 to 11 years (5 in each age group) and 30 TD children participated in the study. Participants placed their forearms on a passive motion apparatus which extended the elbow ...
