Abstract

A study of the relationship between field-dependence and psychomotor performance is presented. Boys practicing amateur boxing (younger juniors) and 16 to 17 yr. of age were subjects. Field-dependence was assessed on Witkin's Group Embedded Figures Test and eye-hand-legs coordination by means of the SMA-3 coordinometer produced by Bryans Co. Higher scores on field-dependence were associated with better performance on the eye-hand-legs coordination task but not with effectiveness of learning.
