The purpose of this study was to examine whether differences exist in processing the same block of information presented in different text formats. In Experiment 1, we investigated the influence of an individual’s dominant perceptual channel (auditory or visual) on the effectiveness of processing written and oral texts. Experiment 2 focused on comprehension and memorisation across five presentation formats: (1) written text only, (2) audio only, (3) written text with infographics, (4) audio text with infographics, and (5) written text with infographics and audio text combined. Based on the results, a hierarchy of information presentation formats was established according to the effectiveness of perception and understanding.
