In the first paragraph of the article, the last sentence begins with:

Line 6 ⟶ 12:

I agree with you that the sentence is confusing. I looked at the revision history to try to figure it out. Originally there was a sentence that explained that visuals could be real or imagined; essentially they are processed the same by the brain. The revision moved this text further into the article, but added a section about how Paivio saw mental images as codes. I think the revision meant to talk about the new section that was added on codes, but kept some of the verbiage from the section on imagined images that was moved.

I changed the sentence to read: "Both visual and verbal codes for representing information are used to organize incoming information into knowledge that can be acted upon, stored, and retrieved for subsequent use."

===Dual-Route vs. Dual-Coding===

The article essentially claimed that dual-coding theory is synonymous with dual-route theory. I believe these are sufficiently distinct that the section on reading/literacy should not confuse the two. If anyone can clarify the distinction better than I am currently able to, it'd be welcome.

== When? ==

1) What does it mean that he "first advanced" it? Did he define it, or did others, and he was just the first to write a book on it?

2) Was the first mention of the theory in his book, "Mental representations: a dual coding approach" from 1986. I think so, but I am not sure.

==Project==

I am going to be editing this article for a project in my history class. I plan to organize the material better as well as make it more clear. Any comments or suggestions are welcome. [[User:Breaugha1|Breaugha1]] ([[User talk:Breaugha1|talk]]) 16:44, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

::Hi Breaugha1, and welcome! Please remember that Wikipedia is not an academic paper or essay. Wikipedia articles should not be based on [[WP:primary sources]], but on reliable, published [[secondary source]]s (for instance, journal reviews and professional or advanced academic textbooks) and, to a lesser extent, on [[tertiary source]]s (such as undergraduate textbooks). [[WP:MEDRS]] describes how to identify reliable sources for medical information, which is a good guideline for many psychology articles as well.
