Abstract
The Automatization cognitive style is defined as greater ability (Strong Automatization) or lesser ability (Weak Automatization) to perform simple repetitive tasks than expected from the individual's general level of ability. Previous work suggested that Strong and Automatizers differ from each other physically as well as cognitively. The present paper examines the physical attributes of Strong and Weak Automatizers in a sample of 48 male college students and in a second sample of 46 male high school students. Significant differences obtained in each sample suggested that the Strong Automatizers are relatively thick, heavy-set, hirsute individuals compared to Weak Automatizers. Results are discussed in the context of the literature on adolescent growth and endocrine functions.
