Abstract: The problem.In exploring the differences that exist among second lanquaqe learners, research,ers have focused on different aspects of ?ognltlv~learnl~g.style--an Individual's preferred means of processing information.Within the cognitive domain, perceptual learning style emerges as a neglected, yet significant factor in second language acquisition.Through the learner's perceptual channels, classified as auditory, visual, tactile and kinesthetic, information is taken in, encoded and stored.It was the purpose of this study to investigate the interplay between an individual's dominant perceptual style and the strategies he/she employs in learning a second language.11 17.Multiple Regressi?nAnalysis of Learning Strategy Group 0 Perceptual Learning Styles and Background Variables...
