Abstract
Summary Seventy‐two 11‐year‐old children were given a spelling test of 32 dictated words containing two levels of both visual and phonemic complexity. They were grouped, within sexes, in terms of their extraversion scores on the Junior Eysenck Personality Inventory and quotients on Raven's Matrices. Their spelling performance was found to interact significantly with their level of extraversion, Raven's score and sex. Introvert boys were inferior in performance to girls in the high Raven's score group, but superior in the low group with little difference in the case of extraverts. The results were discussed in terms of the learning styles that are likely to underly extraversion and performance on Raven's Matrices.
