It was hypothesized that individuals who are field-dependent are discriminated from those who are field-independent by Cattell's personality factor A, F, and Q2. A sample of adults (N=68 male and female graduate students) was tested by means of Oltman's Portable Rod-and-Frame Test, field-dependence groups thus being established. Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire was then administered to the sample. Discriminant analysis of the data resulted in the research hypothesis being supported. Thus, the hypothesized theoretical link between Witkin's psychological differentiation personality dimension and certain Cattellian personality factors was supported empirically. An exploratory stepwise analysis indicated that the Cattellian factors A, L, O, and M may also form a discriminant function which distinguishes between the two groups.
研究假设，卡特尔人格因素A、F和Q2能够区分场依存型个体和场独立型个体。通过奥尔特曼便携式杆框测验对一组成年人样本（N = 68名男女研究生）进行测试，从而建立场依存性分组。随后对该样本进行卡特尔十六种人格因素问卷测试。对数据进行判别分析，结果支持了研究假设。因此，威特金心理分化人格维度与某些卡特尔人格因素之间的理论联系得到了实证支持。探索性逐步分析表明，卡特尔因素A、L、O和M也可能构成一个区分两组的判别函数。
