To assess the relationships among field dependence, overinclusion, and retardedness, 87 individuals were administered Epstein's Overinclusion Test, the Embedded Figures Test, and two tests of retardedness--the O'Connor Finger Dexterity Test and a word association test. Ss included both males and females: 21 noninstitutionalized controls solicited via newspaper advertisements, 23 recently admitted and 21 long-term non-paranoid schizophrenics, and 22 recently admitted individuals with affective disorders. Results supported the direct relationship between overinclusion and field dependence. Sex differences appeared on these same two tests. Contradictory to the third hypothesis, the two tests of retardedness were directly related to both overinclusion and field dependence. These two latter concepts may therefore be manifestations of a single more comprehensive construct.
为了评估场依存性、牵连观念和智力迟钝之间的关系，对87名个体进行了爱泼斯坦牵连观念测验、镶嵌图形测验以及两项智力迟钝测验——奥康纳手指灵活性测验和词语联想测验。研究对象包括男性和女性：通过报纸广告招募的21名非住院对照者，23名新入院的和21名长期非偏执型精神分裂症患者，以及22名新入院的情感障碍患者。结果支持了牵连观念和场依存性之间的直接关系。在这两项相同的测验中出现了性别差异。与第三个假设相反，两项智力迟钝测验与牵连观念和场依存性均直接相关。因此，后两个概念可能是一个更综合结构的表现形式。
