An examination of Witkin's construct of field dependency was undertaken with a sample of adolescent twin pairs to determine if the degree of closeness in twin relationships would be reflected in the twins' degree of field dependency. Sixteen pairs of monozygotic (MZ) adolescent male twins and the same number of dizygotic (DZ) same-sexed male twins were administered three measures: Nichols and Bilbro's (1966) zygosity questionnaire, Paluszny and Beit Hallahmi's (1974) semantic differential measure of closeness, and Jackson's (1956) short form of the Embedded Figures Test. No significant differences were found between the MZ and DZ twin groups with regard to their expressed closeness to one another, as measured with Paluszny and Beit-Hallahmi's index of closeness; in addition, there were no significant differences between the two twin groups on the measure of field dependency. However, significant relationships of these two variables with intelligence were found and possible reasons for such an occurrence were offered.
以青少年双胞胎对为样本，对威特金的场依存性结构进行了一项研究，以确定双胞胎关系的亲密程度是否会反映在双胞胎的场依存程度上。对16对同卵（MZ）青少年男性双胞胎和相同数量的异卵（DZ）同性男性双胞胎进行了三项测量：尼科尔斯和比尔布罗（1966年）的同卵性问卷、帕卢兹尼和贝伊特·哈拉米（1974年）的亲密程度语义差异测量，以及杰克逊（1956年）的嵌入式图形测试简表。就帕卢兹尼和贝伊特 - 哈拉米的亲密程度指数所衡量的而言，MZ和DZ双胞胎组在彼此表达的亲密程度方面没有发现显著差异；此外，在这两个双胞胎组之间，在场依存性测量上也没有显著差异。然而，发现了这两个变量与智力之间的显著关系，并给出了出现这种情况的可能原因。
