How do learning styles relate to type? The commonly recognized styles are visual, auditory, and kinesthetic, although some recognize mathematical/interpersonal, and more. A bit of an explanation is provided here.

I actually could not find anything about that correlation, although I may search some more later. Any ideas, anecdotal or more hypothetical are welcome.

I'm and INTP and visual/kinesthetic, although I have improved my auditory by a huge amount. However, if what I am trying to explain is too complex, I'm most likely to draw it. I'm also quite drawn to graphs and charts.

Some people have also thought that visual/kinesthetic learning styles have a correlation with LD/ADHD because schools teach to auditory.

I'm quite unsure what would correlate. Perhaps xxTx are more visual? That is mainly an anecdotal assumption, otherwise I'd think xxxP would be more visual.

According to Mypersonality.Info I'm
Intrapersonal, Logical/Mathematical and Visual/Spatial (as the top three)
but the "Multiple Intelligences" test there isn't the quite same thing as learning styles. Still, it might have some correlation.

Actually, from the link you posted I think I'm pretty split between the three.
Going through the list I scored:
V/K
V/ possibly K
A
A
A
V
V ...but I dislike demonstrations. I don't like to talk about it with others, or verbal instructions. I like to know what I'm to do and do it. Maybe I'm actually kinesthetic on this one?
K
K/ possibly V

But lots of the questions I was a mixture of Kinesthetic/Auditory/Visual.
And on other questions I was none.

I have a feeling my learning style is strongly visual. I tend to remember images easily, and I'm good at visualising things in my mind. I tend to find that a good graph or diagram really helps get a point across to me. Etcetera.
It's not on that page, but my learning's also strongly word-orientated. I learn very easily from reading, and I always get my ideas across best when they're written down, which is one reason I gravitate towards internet forums.
And like you, I'm INTP (or perhaps INTx - I tend to get more INTJish when I have actual important work to do).

Do you know type as well? It seems that most of us are visual, with tragikk being mixed/unsure.

I'm Auditory myself. Learning better from listening. I did my first diagnostic when i was 8 or 9 in primary school, then again at 14, and a final time at 16. I came out 'A' all the time.
Another variation of the test, proved me to be a 'Reflector'...It was quite accurate in its description.

I'm an auditory learner, I know.

I'm an auditory listener as well, rather than a selective listener.

I learn things through song. redface My spanish teacher had us sing everything we learned in the class and I did very well.
