摘要：

The present study examined the correlation between cognitive style measured by the Group Embedded Figures Test and performance on two water-level tasks by 16 female graduate students. The mean of the absolute deviation from the horizontal was used as the water-level task performance. As predicted, rho was -.49. Greater deviation on the water-level task was associated with low scores on the Group Embedded Figures Test, indicating field dependence.
