Peer reviewedLusk, Edward J.; Wright, Haviland – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
Results are presented which suggest that the learning occurring between two sections of the Group Embedded Fiqures Test is independent of the order in which the sections are worked. (Author/GK)
Descriptors: Comparative Analysis, Higher Education, Learning, Scores
Peer reviewedDescy, 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…

Peer reviewedHunter, John Mark; And Others – Journal of Visual Literacy, 1991
Describes a study that was designed to explore the effects of two teaching presentations (parsed and whole cartoons) and cognitive style (field dependent and field independent) on undergraduate students' ability to understand editorial cartoons. Use of the Group Embedded Figures Test (GEFT) is discussed, and hypotheses tested are explained. (32…

Peer reviewedBishop-Clark, Cathy – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1995
Presents a model that suggests the cognitive style and personality traits that are likely to affect programming stages and empirically investigates 1 portion of that model with 192 college students. Correlations between results from the Group Embedded Figures Test and design and coding tasks are discussed. (LRW)

Peer reviewedDwyer, Francis M.; Moore, David M. – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 1992
Describes a study of undergraduate students at Pennsylvania State University that was conducted to assess the impact of instructional color coding on visually and verbally oriented tests and on field dependence independence. Use of the GEFT (Group Embedded Figures Test) is discussed, and differences in cognitive processes are considered. (11…

Effect sizes have been increasingly emphasized in research as more researchers have recognized that: (1) all parametric analyses (t-tests, analyses of variance, etc.) are correlational; (2) effect sizes have played an important role in meta-analytic work; and (3) statistical significance testing is limited in its capacity to inform scientific…

Thompson, Patricia; And Others – 1979
Using college freshmen enrolled in a learning analysis course, the relationship between five tests of cognitive style was investigated: (1) Group Embedded Figures Test; (2) Grasha-Riechmann Student Learning Style Questionnaire; (3) Adult Nowicki-Strickland Locus of Control Scale; (4) Mehrabian Stimulus Screening Test; and (5) Kolb Learning Style…

Peer reviewedCanino, Casilda; Cicchelli, Terry – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1988
Describes aptitude treatment interaction study that used the cognitive styles field dependence and independence matched with computerized algorithmic and discovery treatments to determine mathematics achievement on a criterion-referenced test. Posttest mathematics scores and student responses to the computer are analyzed, and mastery learning is…
