  • Title: Note on the relationship between introversion-extraversion, field-dependence-independence and accuracy of visual target detection.
    Author: Fine BJ, Kobrick JL.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1976 Jun; 42(3):763-6. PubMed ID: 775426.
    Abstract:
    49 soldier-observers viewed 40 slides in which a stimulus soldier was identically posed in a constant background [corrected] but a different viewing distance (175, 200, 225, 2508 and 275 ft.) and viewing angles (14 degrees and 21 degrees, left and right) from the observer. Accuracy of target detection was compared with viewers' scores on the Hidden Shapes Test and the Maudsley Personality Inventory. Field-dependence-independence and extraversion-introversion were determined to be separately and jointly related to accuracy of target detection. The major effects were attributable to the notably poorer perfromance of Ss characterized of field-dependent extraverts.
