  • Title: Group embedded figures test: psychometric data for a sample of high school students.
    Author: Leahy MD, Zalatimo SD.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1985 Dec; 61(3 Pt 2):1243-8. PubMed ID: 4094865.
    Abstract:
    The present study examined psychometric and normative data for a sample of 259 public high school sophomores (122 boys and 137 girls) who had been administered the Group Embedded Figures Test. For the combined group a Spearman-Brown coefficient of internal consistency of .88 was obtained between Sections 2 and 3 of the test. The present sample was significantly more field-dependent than the normative groups reported by other investigators, and no sex differences was observed with respect to field dependence/field independence. It is recommended that test time for administration of this instrument be extended to 6 min. for each section for samples of high school age.
