In this study the reliability of dominance profiles as a method of establishing a person?s learning style was tested.

In this way, their preferred way of learning things (either visual, auditive or kinestetic) was established. Five of the students did best when they used a visual cue to learn a melody, and the remaining three did best when auditive cues were used. All but one of the students had the worst result in the kinestetic trial. Then experienced examiners determined the dominance profiles of the students, i.e. they concluded what hemisphere, eye, ear, hand or leg that was dominant, by means of muscle testing. 75% of the students were found to have a dominant right hemisphere. Likewise, 75% had access to visual information in the unilateral condition, when the non-dominant hemisphere reduces its activity. All in all, for seven of the students the dominance profile coincided with the best result from the trials of the three different ways of learning. Thus, it seems like dominance profiles are a reliable way to establish your learning style. In this...
