Take my Learner Type free quiz to figure out your learning strengths and weaknesses: bit.ly/4dYKX3T You'll also get a personalised report at the end with recommendations for what to work on to improve your learning efficiency as quickly as possible.
The quiz has now been updated and the bug which gave more people "Other" has been fixed! The "other" category is something that should have only occurred around 3% of the time based on our sample data set. But due to a probably bug in the quiz logic, it was being given out 10x more frequently! I've just tested it with an additional set of cases and it seems to be functioning as normal. If you received "Other" before, please do the quiz again!
Thoughts while watching: - There is more than 1 theory of learning styles - it would be good to be clear what theory you are referring to. - Styles aren't really explained when looking at behaviours or cognition. - Types - takes to long to explain - why assume we don't want to watch long videos? - Building habits from neuroplasticity seems redundant - How do you measure deep processing? If people can't self measure how would they know what to do or not to do. - Weight lifting analogy seems inaccurate - technique can beat strength (far too much nuance over looked for me) - Using different tools seems like someone anyone can rather than a 'type' - Fixed and Growth mindset (assumed Carol Dwecks work) seems inconsistent here - fixed mindset sticks which what they do so why would they go looking for new/better technique? - Avoiding failure can be people in growth mindset - Types seem like level of expertise, making them very dynamic. How can that be used? tracked/measured/made aware off FYI - I am an "Other" type according the quiz...
A fellow "Other" here so I feel you a lot... I think a more apt analogy (coming from a biased CS standpoint) is that high Deep Processing is analogous to having strong raw processing power (for instance, a i9 cpu), and having bad technique is like running inefficient software. If the software is written badly (ref. Starfield), even a very strong setup will still stutter and fail (but with enough power it can be compensated), whereas highly optimized programs will run smoothly even on ancient CPUs. I personally feel like I match closest with the Karp category, not because I have difficulty with adapting to new learning methods, just that I have difficulty switching to a different style simply because I don't have to. If and when presented with a different way to learn, I still adapt to it pretty effectively, which is probably why the quiz didn't consider me as "bad at self-regulating." Also, to continue the CPU analogy, I feel like I'm more like a heavily overclocked cpu with very bad cooling, so I can learn a lot and adapt very fast, at the cost of feeling burnt out and generally having very few "actually effective" hours in a given week. This "motivation" or "endurance" metric seems to be missing, at least in the three dimensions presented here.
Thanks. You've asked some very thoughtful and interesting questions. I agree that being clear about referencing what and which theory he is using would be useful. I also wondered whether a "too long" video is as much about protecting the content of the 'ICanStudy' school which of course is a business. Shorter videos of 10-15 minutes seem to be the most popular length on YT. Making short video that summarise key points can be made as 'tasters' and promotional tools to convert people to purchase the more detailed assistance. That's fair enough - videos take a lot of time and effort to make. I kinda believe that he also does have a more altruistic reason for uploading videos. I have returned to study after a fairly long time and I can learn quite a lot of basic information about learning that I think will be really useful and hopefully save me a lot of time and effort. I'm interested in what you mean by your point "Building habits from neuroplasticity seems redundant". I know you wrote this months ago but if you see this and have a minute I'm interested in your opinion - no probs if it'd take too long to explain though :)
I like how Justin is always talking about seeing the big picture and being mindful of the context for information that we consume and only now is he giving us all the parts that form a comprehensive big picture for cognition and systematic learning. Not complaining, the guy is already putting out so much valuable content for free, just pointing out the irony
Does anyone want me to go into the problem with learning styles in more depth? Or is that topic already pretty well covered by this point? (Also let me know if there's anything form this video you want me to dive into more)
No. Leave it alone. "Learning styles" is a granfalloon, a false category, a phony concern that keeps half-wits busy in the halls of academe. Those who can teach teach; those who can't get Ed.D.s and write theses about learning styles, teaching styles, and other irrelevant nonsense.
12:30, Damn! Stop calling me out Dr. Sung! The diagram that you showed at 12:58 really sums up my life lol. Consuming content, but not doing anything about it. Thankfully I have been getting better in these past days.
Hi Justin, thank you for your videos - I found them a few days ago and leave more knowledgeable and excited each time. I was a PA student and recently withdrew because of poor performance. I believe I am a “sprout”. Not the outcome I wanted, but your channel is helping see where and how to strengthen my learning. My biggest pitfalls were studying voluminous content and recall. Thank you again!
Thank you Justing for all your videos. You helped me to change my entire perspective of learning and realizing that there is so much more and I can go further and further.
Thank you, Justin and the team, for the great video! I took the free test and got "other" so I started thinking would it be possible to share the full test for a fee, separate from the rest of the course?
Hello Dr.Justin sung, im truly impressed by the depth of insight provided in this video ,Your expertise in this area is truly valuable, and I believe that it would be incredibly beneficial for many individuals if you were to consider authoring a book or a series of books on these subjects. Your ability to communicate complex ideas in a clear and engaging manner makes your insights extremely accessible and valuable to a wide audience. I imagine that a book from you could serve as an invaluable resource for anyone looking to enhance their learning and cognitive processes. I eagerly anticipate the possibility of reading your work and gaining deeper understanding from your expertise. Best regards Your student 🤘
I have so many questions. I did your quiz, answered it as honestly as possible. I’ve always had top academic results, why should I believe the diagnostic tool you have devised? What is this category “Deep Processing”? What is it based on? Where can I find the evidence? Or is it just a marketing funnel? I’m fascinated by your presentations, but I’m not so sure about your product. Why, earlier in the presentation, did you instruct us to ‘think of a genius” Yeah, Einstein, but more so his first wife, Stephen Hawking (none of his wives), and my Mum. “T hink of a genius” the power of suggestion is so strong. Framing puts you in the picture if you can see yourself in it. So our student wants desperately to work smarter, achieve better, and there is the 🥕. can they ever get the carrot? I hope so for his/her sake.
It wasn’t until I got to college that I had to learn how to study. I felt deflated in the beginning of college because before college, I was able to grasp materials while in class without opening my texbooks.
To concluded the conclusion 😅 in my understanding Change the idea of "I can't into How can?". Try some diff. Method that resonate with you and leave what it doesn't our brain need some mapping but don't be fixated about it learn to use some imagination to expand and grow even better 😅
You know dr justin,when you mention about train deep processing it reminds me about jasson padget who got savant syndrome after terrible accident.Jasson padget is a normal person with not good deep processing before accident he took in head.Then,with the example of jasson padget, could you give me some steps for banging my head or make accident in my head so that i could get increasing my deep processing? (Bercyanda ku bercyanda)
Not trying because im fairly confident what the end result will be either way ❌ Trying because i know i literally cant get worse and have nothing to lose >:) ✅ (Apart from time i guess but i have nothing better to do)
Hey Justin, when u say "relate it to the big picture" What do u mean, I know the sentence isn't in this video, but it's on other videos, really curious, please reply this. And if anyone APART from Justin, kindly reply me
I'm a karps type, learning is quite easy for me comparatively but my self regulations skills sucks so bad, how do i improve? Is there any vdo where he explains about each type in detail?
I am not sure what that means. To me, that sounds like asking can video editing software adjust its transition methods taking into account your monitor type? Sure, but it depends on what software, whether or not there is a need and/or market for it, who will be using the software, who the user is making videos for... I'm guessing you mean something along the lines of can LLM, like Chat-GPT, use learner types to improve its output? Can you give a machine learning model instructions and information about learner types? Sure. Can you create a teaching agent, with a bias towards a learning type? Probably quite easily. Does it make a big impact on your learning? We'll just have to try it out and see. As I understand it, the point of learner types is not for teachers to adapt their content to you, but for you to improve yourself to better adapt to any content being taught. It's like, can others help you with quitting an addiction? Sure they can provide tons of assistance, but if you can't help yourself in the first place it is much less likely to be effective.
- Learner types are about assessing your habits and processes as a learner. They are based on 5 key dimensions: - *deep processing* - *self-regulation* - *mindset* - *self-management* - *retrieval practice* - Deep processing is your raw cognitive power and ability to think critically. It can be improved through training habits. If you have low deep processing, ineffective study techniques may not work as well for you. - Self-regulation is your ability to monitor and adapt your learning methods. High self-regulation can compensate for lower deep processing. - Mindset is about your resilience and response to mistakes. A fixed mindset limits improvement, while a growth mindset enables it. Mindset can be the most limiting factor. - Common learner types: - *Unchained* (fixed mindset) - *Sprout* (growth mindset but low processing/self-regulation) - *Trooper* (high self-regulation but low processing) - *Carp* (high processing but low self-regulation). - Knowing your learner type helps you focus your efforts on improving the dimensions that will make the biggest impact for you. A free diagnostic quiz is linked in the video description.
1. Deep processing: ability to think critically, connect ideas and understand complex concepts 2. Self regulation: mastery and adaptation of learning techniques and self-awareness of using the right strategy for the right task 3. Mindset: attitude toward failure and experimentation
The fact that comments like these are under the video makes me reconsider my initial opinion that the average learner is not constrained by any of these.
try the quiz twice, both times the result was Unchained. i wish i knew effective methods at all so i can learn all the things i want. I think im trap in the circle of wanting to improve and not nowing effective ways to learn in a consistens manner o learning at all
Guilty spark here. Smart, have good learning methods, AND a good mindset, I just suck at doing things early enough to learn everything I need to; even if I learn insanely fast, I'll always have to sacrifice one or two sections I need to learn because I genuinely don't have enough time left to go over them, without losing what I've already learnt😭😭
I think Karp (tho in the test it said, spark) here as well, and i am already in collegue. Believe me, you will need it, i speak of expirience. Getting into university after i got good grades without ever having to do anything felt like i got punched in the face. Tho it probably also depends on the major.
Just wanna share a few thoughts about you, Dr. Sung :Đ I've accidentally "jumped" into 1 or 2 of you videos when I started learn in university, and your context have helped me a lot with my learning journey. I remembered like 2 years ago (?) People are really go crazy about space repetition and active recall, flash cards, etc... but with a law student like me, those methods take too much time and energy while the results are not too good. But after accidentally found your videos, I could learn in a really relaxing ways while still being able to enjoy myself and doing other stuffs. I just wanna say thank you, thank you very much for your help.
I actually inaudibly gasped when you said all human brians are superior at interpreting visual information! Immediately had to check with my brain and she confirms cause yeah what do we do with any type of information we try to learn? We imagine it visually in a way im which position, shapes, etc matter. Basically mental mindmapping. And when I was a kid and learned about learning types I checked with my brain which one I am. I thought "I'm all of them but just a little bit" so like I like to hear things once, I like to write things once, I like to read things once lol. Different stuff but just once. Writing the same stuff over and over doesn't seem to help more than just writing it once. I think I always automatically seeked to make sense of the info bcs it was genuinely the only way I knew how to learn. Btw I was part of your course once but had to drop due to mental health issues but definitely want to join again. Sad how I was already naturally gravitating toward the basics you teach but school kinda metaphorically beat it out of me. Then in later years they badly taught us better ways to think about the material and it just made me mad. Like first off I did that and you taught me not to. Second off you're now teaching us this - very slowly, you could be much faster - all the while acting like it's some insane amazing new information. Like... it really pissed me off. Happened in later highschool and just ticked me off.
Great video. Though I've to ask, what does the dimension of "self-management" entail? My first thought was your idea of learning enablers, but you said most people aren't lacking in it, so now I am not sure. And separately mindset is already a part of the enabler skills.
I would think self-regulation is about how you reflect on your learning skills/abilities, how you learn to learn, evaluate your learning progress and habits continuously. If it was a fitness program instead of a learning program it would be like how do you know you are following the program you set out to do, how do you evaluate how well the program works, how do you keep track of your nutrition, exercise statistics, how do you measure progress, set goals, stick to goals, how well can you sustain your motivation when things get tough.
Thank you so much for this video! Just took the free Learner Type Quiz and I’m happy to know that I’m a Spark! ଘ(੭ˊ꒳ˋ)੭✧ I love your videos. New subscriber here. (๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)
Deep processing is underrated yet yields better overall results/performance especially in the academic field. But, if I may ask. How do you do "deep processing"? If one can improve one's deep processing ability, how can we measure it? Can we even measure it?
deep processing seems very fixed in this video even though it was mentioned you can change it because of neuroplasticity. im dying to know more about since I didnt really grasp this too well in the video.
hello Justin. I am a new commer in your group. I was thinking about my life, my future whether I can do something btter in my life or not and I stumbled upon your video in seach of guidence. this video really helped me boost my confidence and also to give myself time to think about the methods and techniques and also my mediocare routine as a high school teen. Your survey said I am unchained which at first I was curious that how on earth I am like this but after a retest, I admit it. just waiting for the pdf and looking forward to grow now. Thanks for your help and your motivation (well this video isn't meant to be a motivational stuff rather it is a guide and informational one but who knows).
I have pretty high deep processing - I was that asshole in high school who could miss a ton of school, never do homework, show up and get an A on a report for a book I never read. In saying that, I failed 3 out of 4 of my university units last trimester (and that one I passed was by a hair). Succeeding despite my method would be nice, but my method is so bad that there's no success to be found. My self-regulation is some of the worst I've ever seen in any student in my life. My mindset is god awful too - total perfectionist and I'm terrified of failure. My problem is just not doing a damn thing. I've had friends who have struggled to keep up, but almost never known another student who just simply does not even open the unit site for 3 weeks (or 6 weeks) straight. I'm neurodivergent and when my brain doesn't want to study (which is most of the time), study is just not happening. It causes a wave of negative emotions so intense I can't think or read anyway, so I tend to figure "What's the point of even upsetting myself." Even when I'm up for it, I get study fatigue extremely quickly. I'm studying psychology, one of my deepest passions, and I could watch videos/documentaries about the exact same concepts for hours without blinking. But there's just some strong association in my mindset between formal academia and suffering. Probably a degree of pathological demand avoidance too. I guess you could say I rolled an 18 in deep processing and a 1 for both self-regulation and mindset. It does not balance out. But I really care about my degree and I still think I can improve - hoping your videos will teach me some skills I can practice.
@justinsung I took the Learner Type quiz and my learner type is Spark. Have you renamed the learner types from those mentioned in the video above--unchained, sprout, trooper, and Karp?
Thanks for these videos, I am starting the university next month and I am considering to buy an ipad for taking notes and improve my workflow. I have always achieved great notes but my way of study is not quite optimal, with these videos I try to follow your steps in order to find the best study flow.
I did not get the PDF report. Rather an email, which is fine, but the links in the email triggered suspicious connection errors due to unmatching security certificate. I want to read the report on the Unchained learning style, however, I cannot take the risk.

Where is the quiz? I don't see it when I press on that link.
@JustingSung, Is the link still working? I am a working professional and would like to explore more techniques.
The quiz has now been updated and the bug which gave more people "Other" has been fixed! The "other" category is something that should have only occurred around 3% of the time based on our sample data set. But due to a probably bug in the quiz logic, it was being given out 10x more frequently! I've just tested it with an additional set of cases and it seems to be functioning as normal. If you received "Other" before, please do the quiz again!
I really really admire what you are doing
Why don't you write a book that you explain the full picture inside of your head about learning
I still got “other” but it’s entirely possible I am just a weirdo!
The page didn't load for me at all.
Why's that? What do I do?
I just did the test and it gave me other... I gave my email for nothing 😶
I still appreciate the video, though.
Thoughts while watching:
- There is more than 1 theory of learning styles - it would be good to be clear what theory you are referring to.
- Styles aren't really explained when looking at behaviours or cognition.
- Types - takes to long to explain - why assume we don't want to watch long videos?
- Building habits from neuroplasticity seems redundant
- How do you measure deep processing? If people can't self measure how would they know what to do or not to do.
- Weight lifting analogy seems inaccurate - technique can beat strength (far too much nuance over looked for me)
- Using different tools seems like someone anyone can rather than a 'type'
- Fixed and Growth mindset (assumed Carol Dwecks work) seems inconsistent here - fixed mindset sticks which what they do so why would they go looking for new/better technique?
- Avoiding failure can be people in growth mindset
- Types seem like level of expertise, making them very dynamic. How can that be used? tracked/measured/made aware off
FYI - I am an "Other" type according the quiz...
A fellow "Other" here so I feel you a lot...
I think a more apt analogy (coming from a biased CS standpoint) is that high Deep Processing is analogous to having strong raw processing power (for instance, a i9 cpu), and having bad technique is like running inefficient software.

Would love if you could do a more detailed breakdown on it with some more examples!
Yes please!
I feel like it has been done to death. Lack of evidence + Straight up disproven.
Yeah sure and we would be happy to dive more deeper about the mindset and how we can get better at our mindset
No. Leave it alone. "Learning styles" is a granfalloon, a false category, a phony concern that keeps half-wits busy in the halls of academe. Those who can teach teach; those who can't get Ed.D.s and write theses about learning styles, teaching styles, and other irrelevant nonsense.

He commented on this video (probably right after your comment) that the quiz had a bug making Other 10X more frequent, so try taking it again.
@@TheQuark6789 oh, thanks for letting me know!
Thank u so much for offering free tools from ur paid program. Even a small sample is better then no knowledge at all.

I took the free quiz and it showed that I am in the other category
I got the other too.
In the video he says is more of a spectrum than a black and white thing
Pov me: hey, i have the spark learner type,
It seems to have all three
Also me: *AND HIS NAME IS JOHN CENA!!!!*
I love what you've done with editing🎉
So the quiz was why the video was late. Good work as always! A bit disappointed to get the other result though, I want to have a label :v
Thank you Justin, this is what I want to take notes, you know what I am thinking, thank you for your video

Can you please make a video on how we can train and develop our deep processing habits?
You know dr justin,when you mention about train deep processing it reminds me about jasson padget who got savant syndrome after terrible accident.Jasson padget is a normal person with not good deep processing before accident he took in head.Then,with the example of jasson padget, could you give me some steps for banging my head or make accident in my head so that i could get increasing my deep processing?

I love your videos all of them actually so thank you ,but please don’t use loud music and a lot of different sounds for editing it’s so distracting.
Thanks your sharing.
I can't seem to access the quiz with the link you provided
I made the test but never got the pdf.. :(
now I got the mail but the PDF doesn`t exist..:/
Same here. I wonder what's happening.
Hello Dr Justin
I was hoping if you would recommend a book for us that can help us understand more about learning
Thank You
Which is better vocalizing something to memorize or just processing something to memorize?
Can you make video on how we can improve our deep processing
Awesome thanks so so much man.........
Not trying because im fairly confident what the end result will be either way ❌
Trying because i know i literally cant get worse and have nothing to lose >:) ✅
(Apart from time i guess but i have nothing better to do)
I really appreciate what he is doing.
Thank you, I appreciate your comment
Thank you Justin for all your videos :)
No worries!
Now I think I understand why I struggle with your videos. The real learning is in your paid courses.
Can you make a video on ADHD?
Keep doing what you are doing
This seems so promising ❤
Thanks!
We appreciate your videos
When i completed the learner type quiz it told me that i am a spark.
You did not include spark in the video
hello i am not receiving the email
How have I never found you before?!! 🤦🏾♀️ and how did I finally find you?? Notion 🤦🏾♀️😂 well, we’re here now 🥰
How does one work at all three levels. I feel i am falling behind in all three of them.
That was amazing
Hey Justin, when u say "relate it to the big picture"
What do u mean, I know the sentence isn't in this video, but it's on other videos, really curious, please reply this.
And if anyone APART from Justin, kindly reply me
Great sir 👍
I'm a karps type, learning is quite easy for me comparatively but my self regulations skills sucks so bad, how do i improve? Is there any vdo where he explains about each type in detail?
How can i know more about unchained mindset when pdf is not coming
Hmmm, I did the test but it shows I am 'OTHER' , will there be an update further on?
Thank you for sharing the knowledge! It´s very useful.
And greetings from Germany!
no worries

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO OMG
What does cognitive habiys mean and i am a Trooper type then what should i do?
So I was a karp😂😂 and your channel made me evolve into gyarados
Does justin provide the good info or bs? The new guy here
Can AI adjust it's teaching methods taking into account your learner type?
I am not sure what that means.
To me, that sounds like asking can video editing software adjust its transition methods taking into account your monitor type?
Sure, but it depends on what software, whether or not there is a need and/or market for it, who will be using the software, who the user is making videos for...
I'm guessing you mean something along the lines of can LLM, like Chat-GPT, use learner types to improve its output?
Can you give a machine learning model instructions and information about learner types? Sure.
Can you create a teaching agent, with a bias towards a learning type? Probably quite easily.
Does it make a big impact on your learning? We'll just have to try it out and see.
As I understand it, the point of learner types is not for teachers to adapt their content to you, but for you to improve yourself to better adapt to any content being taught.
It's like, can others help you with quitting an addiction? Sure they can provide tons of assistance, but if you can't help yourself in the first place it is much less likely to be effective.
Have done the test 3 days ago and still got no pdf xD
I think i am unchained 😅
Facts
Positive comment
Thank youuuuuuu!!!
I’m a trooper
Anyone else take the quiz and it said “other” ?
Yup lol
Me bro, Idk what I should do to figure out my learner type, moving on.
- Learner types are about assessing your habits and processes as a learner.
They are based on 5 key dimensions:
- *deep processing*
- *self-regulation*
- *mindset*
- *self-management*
- *retrieval practice*
- Deep processing is your raw cognitive power and ability to think critically. It can be improved through training habits. If you have low deep processing, ineffective study techniques may not work as well for you.
- Self-regulation is your ability to monitor and adapt your learning methods. High self-regulation can compensate for lower deep processing.
- Mindset is about your resilience and response to mistakes. A fixed mindset limits improvement, while a growth mindset enables it. Mindset can be the most limiting factor.
- Common learner types:
- *Unchained* (fixed mindset)
- *Sprout* (growth mindset but low processing/self-regulation)
- *Trooper* (high self-regulation but low processing)
- *Carp* (high processing but low self-regulation).
- Knowing your learner type helps you focus your efforts on improving the dimensions that will make the biggest impact for you. A free diagnostic quiz is linked in the video description.
Thank you
Wooww...you're so cool bro. Tq for this, needmuch
I learn more from the comments when it comes to this guy's channel 🤣🤣
1. Deep processing: ability to think critically, connect ideas and understand complex concepts
2. Self regulation: mastery and adaptation of learning techniques and self-awareness of using the right strategy for the right task
3. Mindset: attitude toward failure and experimentation
How I think about it:
Raw Brain Power
Technique
Your Psychology
You're changing and saving lives. Thank you for still uploading and sharing what you have synthesized for the rest of us.
The fact that comments like these are under the video makes me reconsider my initial opinion that the average learner is not constrained by any of these.
try the quiz twice, both times the result was Unchained. i wish i knew effective methods at all so i can learn all the things i want. I think im trap in the circle of wanting to improve and not nowing effective ways to learn in a consistens manner o learning at all
same bro.
Nobody gonna talk about how smooth that pen flicking was of Justin 🔥 6:44
Guilty spark here. Smart, have good learning methods, AND a good mindset, I just suck at doing things early enough to learn everything I need to; even if I learn insanely fast, I'll always have to sacrifice one or two sections I need to learn because I genuinely don't have enough time left to go over them, without losing what I've already learnt😭😭
Karp 🙋 starting uni next autumn and I've decided it's time to learn how to learn instead of just relying on raw talent to get me through this
I think Karp (tho in the test it said, spark) here as well, and i am already in collegue. Believe me, you will need it, i speak of expirience. Getting into university after i got good grades without ever having to do anything felt like i got punched in the face. Tho it probably also depends on the major.
I am expecting you a podcast with
"JIM KWIK"
Yup! that would be interesting .
Or may be with cal newport.
Just wanna share a few thoughts about you, Dr. Sung :Đ
I've accidentally "jumped" into 1 or 2 of you videos when I started learn in university, and your context have helped me a lot with my learning journey.
I remembered like 2 years ago (?) People are really go crazy about space repetition and active recall, flash cards, etc... but with a law student like me, those methods take too much time and energy while the results are not too good. But after accidentally found your videos, I could learn in a really relaxing ways while still being able to enjoy myself and doing other stuffs.
I just wanna say thank you, thank you very much for your help.
if i can reborn, i want to be his son obviously
From Togo! You're videos help me learn English and how to learn!
I actually inaudibly gasped when you said all human brians are superior at interpreting visual information! Immediately had to check with my brain and she confirms cause yeah what do we do with any type of information we try to learn? We imagine it visually in a way im which position, shapes, etc matter. Basically mental mindmapping. And when I was a kid and learned about learning types I checked with my brain which one I am. I thought "I'm all of them but just a little bit" so like I like to hear things once, I like to write things once, I like to read things once lol. Different stuff but just once. Writing the same stuff over and over doesn't seem to help more than just writing it once. I think I always automatically seeked to make sense of the info bcs it was genuinely the only way I knew how to learn. Btw I was part of your course once but had to drop due to mental health issues but definitely want to join again. Sad how I was already naturally gravitating toward the basics you teach but school kinda metaphorically beat it out of me. Then in later years they badly taught us better ways to think about the material and it just made me mad. Like first off I did that and you taught me not to. Second off you're now teaching us this - very slowly, you could be much faster - all the while acting like it's some insane amazing new information. Like... it really pissed me off. Happened in later highschool and just ticked me off.
Me: Sure I'll take the quiz, might learn something
The Quiz: Sorry but you're just not normal
ME: Ah, I kinda knew that already.
Just here helping the algorithm.
Thanks for the comment haha
Great video. Though I've to ask, what does the dimension of "self-management" entail? My first thought was your idea of learning enablers, but you said most people aren't lacking in it, so now I am not sure. And separately mindset is already a part of the enabler skills.
I would think self-regulation is about how you reflect on your learning skills/abilities, how you learn to learn, evaluate your learning progress and habits continuously.
If it was a fitness program instead of a learning program it would be like how do you know you are following the program you set out to do, how do you evaluate how well the program works, how do you keep track of your nutrition, exercise statistics, how do you measure progress, set goals, stick to goals, how well can you sustain your motivation when things get tough.
I am curious to know my learning type am in others😂😂😂 when is the next video??? Plus what's your type Justin?
Thank you so much for this video! Just took the free Learner Type Quiz and I’m happy to know that I’m a Spark! ଘ(੭ˊ꒳ˋ)੭✧
I love your videos. New subscriber here. (๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)
Deep processing is underrated yet yields better overall results/performance especially in the academic field. But, if I may ask. How do you do "deep processing"? If one can improve one's deep processing ability, how can we measure it? Can we even measure it?
I have the same question, how do we measure deep processing?
A lot on deep processing can be found on the channel, as mentioned in the vid :)
Thank you so much! That was helpful to understand better my struggles the results were that I am the Unchained type
Glad it could help, and give you direction on how you improve your learning skills!
Ill definitely be using that course

This info is pure gold. Thanks for sharing, may your work be blessed.
deep processing seems very fixed in this video even though it was mentioned you can change it because of neuroplasticity. im dying to know more about since I didnt really grasp this too well in the video.
Im amaze with you're knowledge about how learning works, how can you know so much about those?
hey Justin where is the shirt from??
While I absolutely love your videos, ads every 90 seconds or so are getting annoying and are quite a detractor.
hello Justin. I am a new commer in your group. I was thinking about my life, my future whether I can do something btter in my life or not and I stumbled upon your video in seach of guidence. this video really helped me boost my confidence and also to give myself time to think about the methods and techniques and also my mediocare routine as a high school teen. Your survey said I am unchained which at first I was curious that how on earth I am like this but after a retest, I admit it. just waiting for the pdf and looking forward to grow now. Thanks for your help and your motivation (well this video isn't meant to be a motivational stuff rather it is a guide and informational one but who knows).
I have pretty high deep processing - I was that asshole in high school who could miss a ton of school, never do homework, show up and get an A on a report for a book I never read. In saying that, I failed 3 out of 4 of my university units last trimester (and that one I passed was by a hair). Succeeding despite my method would be nice, but my method is so bad that there's no success to be found. My self-regulation is some of the worst I've ever seen in any student in my life. My mindset is god awful too - total perfectionist and I'm terrified of failure. My problem is just not doing a damn thing. I've had friends who have struggled to keep up, but almost never known another student who just simply does not even open the unit site for 3 weeks (or 6 weeks) straight. I'm neurodivergent and when my brain doesn't want to study (which is most of the time), study is just not happening. It causes a wave of negative emotions so intense I can't think or read anyway, so I tend to figure "What's the point of even upsetting myself." Even when I'm up for it, I get study fatigue extremely quickly. I'm studying psychology, one of my deepest passions, and I could watch videos/documentaries about the exact same concepts for hours without blinking. But there's just some strong association in my mindset between formal academia and suffering. Probably a degree of pathological demand avoidance too.
I guess you could say I rolled an 18 in deep processing and a 1 for both self-regulation and mindset. It does not balance out. But I really care about my degree and I still think I can improve - hoping your videos will teach me some skills I can practice.
@justinsung I took the Learner Type quiz and my learner type is Spark. Have you renamed the learner types from those mentioned in the video above--unchained, sprout, trooper, and Karp?
Thanks for these videos, I am starting the university next month and I am considering to buy an ipad for taking notes and improve my workflow. I have always achieved great notes but my way of study is not quite optimal, with these videos I try to follow your steps in order to find the best study flow.

I did not get the PDF report. Rather an email, which is fine, but the links in the email triggered suspicious connection errors due to unmatching security certificate. I want to read the report on the Unchained learning style, however, I cannot take the risk.
