Abstract
Each individual demonstrates a distinct style of gathering and organizing information or accumulating knowledge. This paper describes the cognitive style of field dependence versus field independence. The literature on cognitive style research is discussed and applied to the supervision process that occurs in fieldwork practice. Implications for the future development of fieldwork education programmes are presented.Keywords
