Kolb’s Learning Styles Inventory is one of the most commonly used instruments to identify a learner’s style. This paper attempts to find out whether our own perception of our learning style matches other people’s perception of our learning style. We have used a 360-degree technique to measure an individual’s learning style as perceived by others. A Mean Learning Style and a Learning Style Vecto...

background: learning disability is one of the most noticed subjects for behavioral specialists. most of the learning difficulties are caused by senso-motor development and neurological organization. the main purpose of the present research is to examine the role of delayed perceptual-motor development and brain damage in origination of expressive writing disorder (ewd).   methods: the studied s...

AbstractWe present a novel method of learning style-agnostic representation using both style transfer and adversarial in the reinforcement framework. The style, here, refers to task-irrelevant details such as color background images, where generalizing learned policy across environments with different styles is still challenge. Focusing on representations, our trains actor diverse image generat...

restoring wetlands, not owning a car, and living in a 7 m 2 cottage. Any advice for someone starting a career in ecology and conservation science? Field work is not like watching documentaries. An hour-long program can take years to shoot and shows only the most exciting stuff. You don't see the tedium, the sweat, and hard work required. Most field research is tedious, often requires long days,...

Perceptual learning involves relatively long-lasting changes to an organism's perceptual system that improve its ability to respond to its environment. Four mechanisms of perceptual learning are discussed: attention weighting, imprinting, differentiation, and unitization. By attention weighting, perception becomes adapted to tasks and environments by increasing the attention paid to important d...

Perceptual learning refers to how experience can change the way we perceive sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch. Examples abound: music training improves our ability to discern tones; experience with food and wines can refine our pallet (and unfortunately more quickly empty our wallet), and with years of training radiologists learn to save lives by discerning subtle details of images that...

This study aimed to investigate learning styles of gifted and nongifted students, and its relationship with school type, gender and grade. The sample of this study consists of 90 (Female=41, Male=49) gifted Students, and 90 (Female=43, Male=47) nongifted student in Tafila Governorate Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, for the second semester of the academic year 2012/2013. Learning style Questionnair...

PURPOSE This review article provides a theoretical overview of the characteristics of perceptual learning, reviews perceptual learning studies that pertain to dysarthric populations, and identifies directions for future research that consider the application of perceptual learning to the management of dysarthria. METHOD A critical review of the literature was conducted that summarized and syn...
