A number of reports have indicated that Witkin's Embedded Figures Test correlates with performance on standard intelligence tests. This finding was replicated in a recent factor analytic study when the test loaded substantially on a factor best representing the performance subtests of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). However, the embedded figures also loaded on an uncorrelated factor, in addition to those normally associated with WAIS, which would relate well to Witkin's conception of psychological differentiation. These loadings on two uncorrelated factors suggested that the factorial structure of the Embedded Figures Test should be examined. An item analysis indicated a bi-factorial structure and, as presently constituted, the scale will provide misleading and ambiguous information.
许多报告表明，威特金的隐蔽图形测验与标准智力测验的成绩相关。这一发现最近在一项因素分析研究中得到了重复，当时该测验在一个最能代表韦氏成人智力量表（WAIS）成绩子测验的因素上有显著载荷。然而，除了那些通常与WAIS相关的因素外，隐蔽图形还在一个不相关的因素上有载荷，这与威特金的心理分化概念密切相关。在两个不相关因素上的这些载荷表明，应该对隐蔽图形测验的因素结构进行研究。项目分析表明其具有双因素结构，就目前的构成而言，该量表会提供误导性和模糊的信息。
