The Leuven Embedded Figures Test (L-EFT): measuring perception, intelligence or executive function?
Performance on the Embedded Figures Test (EFT) has been interpreted as a reflection of local/global perceptual style, weak central coherence and/or field independence, as well as a measure of intelligence and executive function. The variable ways in which EFT findings have been interpreted demonstrate that the construct validity of this measure is unclear. In order to address this lack of clari...
متن کاملDeveloping the Leuven Embedded Figures Test (L-EFT): testing the stimulus features that influence embedding
BACKGROUND The Embedded Figures Test (EFT, developed by Witkin and colleagues (1971)) has been used extensively in research on individual differences, particularly in the study of autism spectrum disorder. The EFT was originally conceptualized as a measure of field (in)dependence, but in recent years performance on the EFT has been interpreted as a measure of local versus global perceptual styl...
متن کاملCorrelation between intelligence test scores and executive function measures.
In this study, some executive function measures (Wisconsin Card Sorting Test [WCST], verbal fluency, and Trial Making Test [TMT], Form A and Form B) were correlated with Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) scores. Fifty 13- to 16-year-old normal children were selected. It was found that verbal fluency tests correlated about 0.30 with Verbal Intelligence Quotient (IQ) and F...
متن کاملThe Leuven Perceptual Organization Screening Test (L-POST), an online test to assess mid-level visual perception.
Neuropsychological diagnostic tests of visual perception mostly assess high-level processes like object recognition. Object recognition, however, relies on distinct mid-level processes of perceptual organization that are only implicitly tested in classical tests. The Leuven Perceptual Organization Screening Test (L-POST) fills a gap with respect to clinically oriented tests of mid-level visual ...
متن کاملField Dependence-Independence on the Children's Embedded Figures Test: Cognitive Style or Cognitive Level?
In research at the interface of personality and intellectual development, an important issue concerns the distinction between cognitive ability and cognitive style. Achenbach and Weisz (1975). recently demonstrated that the distinction is rather difficult to draw with respect to the cognitive style dimension of impulsivity-reflectivity. Another widely studied cognitive style construct that dese...
