You can find the learning style test here. There is an explanation of the results at the end. Be sure to post your results, and let us know whether you're Aspie or NT.

I scored 9 reflective, 11 intuitive, 9 verbal, and 9 global. I'm a diagnosed Aspie.

Why am I asking? - Learning styles are gaining importance because students struggle to learn anything not taught in their preferred learning style. There is no reason the impacts of learning style in the classroom wouldn't also apply to learning social skills. I'm really curious about how the results will come out.

There is the correct link.

As for me I don't know enough about my learning style to answer the questions. For instance, what do you mean think it out or try it? Aren't I supposed to do both?

I think life experience can change learning styles. Hell, even improved understanding of learning styles can change learning styles. Diagnosed aspie.

I have no idea what the abbreviations are, but here you go:

ref = 3
sen = 5
vis = 1
seq = 9

I'm NT until proven otherwise

7 reflective, 7 intuitive, 5 visual, 1 sequential.

Not diagnosed with AS, but it explains my brain better than anything else does.

Active Leaner 3
Intuitive Learner 1
Visual Learner 1
Global Learner 5

It's pretty balanced except for the Global Learning (ADHD I guess) which is about correct.
