Abstract
76 undergraduates were given the Hidden Figures Test (HFT) and the Adult's Locus of Evaluation and Control Scale (ALOE-C). Correlations between the HFT and the “evaluation” subscale of the ALOE-C were statistically significant, but the “control” subscale was not significantly related to performance on the HFT. A significant negative correlation between HFT score and the frequency of guessing also was found and indicated that field-dependent Ss may have been less cautious in answering HFT items than field-independent Ss. Unlike results reported by Witkin the present study showed no tendency for females to be more field-dependent than males.
