In this study, advanced Japanese language learners were asked to repeat sentences each of visually presented and auditory presented three times. The results showed that (a) Learners with low working memory capacity are more sensitive to presentation modality than learners with high working memory capacity. (b) As the number of repetition trials increases, the performance of the repeating task improves. (c) Repeating rates in visual presentations are always better than that in auditory presentations.
