Deficits in working memory are pervasive, resistant to remediation and significantly impact a persons ability to perform activities of daily living. Internal strategies are effective for improving working memory. Learning style preferences may influence the use of various internal working memory strategies. This study compares the use of internal working memory strategies among four different learning style preferences; converger, diverger, assimilator and accommodator. A non-experimental group design was used to compare the use of internal working memory strategies and learning style preferences among 110 adults. There were some significant differences in the types of strategies used according to learning style preferences. Knowing the learning style preference of clients may help occupational therapists better tailor cognitive rehabilitation treatments to meet the client's needs.
工作记忆缺陷普遍存在，难以矫正，且会显著影响一个人进行日常生活活动的能力。内部策略对改善工作记忆有效。学习风格偏好可能会影响各种内部工作记忆策略的使用。本研究比较了四种不同学习风格偏好（聚合型、发散型、同化型和顺应型）的人群对内部工作记忆策略的使用情况。采用非实验性组设计，比较了110名成年人对内部工作记忆策略的使用情况和学习风格偏好。根据学习风格偏好，所使用的策略类型存在一些显著差异。了解客户的学习风格偏好可能有助于职业治疗师更好地定制认知康复治疗方案，以满足客户的需求。
