My three subjects were: My mom who is a reader for her learning style, my eighteen year old sister who is a listening learner, and my seventeen year old brother who is the visual learner.
Brother (Visual): Test 1: Right away he said he saw hats and shoes flying everywhere and that remained his answer until he saw click 20, when he decided it looked like a gingerbread man that had a “messed up face”.
Test 2: He insisted he saw a horse after all the animals and even showed me where, and this was on click 1. Steps seven through ten he said he saw a unicorn. Fifteen through twenty he insisted he saw the messed up gingerbread man again.
Sister: Test 1: She insisted she saw nothing and became frustrated and then said she might have seen a face around click fifteen or sixteen.
Test 2: She saw “the cowboy riding the horse”.
Mom: Test 1: Saw a lot of happy faces throughout the clicks.
Test 2: She noticed the horse on the 18-20th clicks and also saw the man/rider after I gave her a chance to look closely.
To conclude, every one of my subjects saw a horse at some point, they just saw it at different points in the clicks. The two logical thinkers, my mother and sister, saw the man/cowboy/rider, however my brother did not. I wonder why he didn’t and I also wonder where he got the gingerbread man idea from. He might still have Christmas on the brain.
