Effects of Color Change of the Ground of a Visual on Picture Recognition of Field Dependent/Field Independent Individuals.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Descy, Don E. – International Journal of Instructional Media, 1990
Presents a study designed to investigate the interaction between the cognitive style of field dependence/field independence and ability to recognize ground color change of a visual. A significant difference in recognition scores based on ground color change collapsing across cognitive style is reported. Implications for instructional design are…
