Reliability of perceptual learning style preferences of chronically mentally ill adults.
36 chronically mentally ill adults were administered the perceptual learning style items (auditory, visual, kinesthetic) from the Productivity Environmental Preference Survey. A retest was given 6 months later. Analysis showed that, although the instrument can be reliably scored, content and time sampling error more than account for the variance in these subtests. Self-reported perceptual learning style appears to be a transient phenomenon of limited practical utility in this population.
