Abstract
An exploratory analysis was conducted to determine the relationships between measures of perceptual style, selective attention, and preference for pace. The main intent was to determine whether preference for pace and information-processing ability were related. The expectation was that ability and preferences would have a low correlation. Testing 30 male and 30 female university students the results confirmed a low relationship between preference for pace and information-processing ability.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
