Abstract
Scores on extraversion, neuroticism, and psychoticism were correlated with each other, and with scores on the rod-and-frame test and the Stroop test, for 97 male and 97 female Ss, and the resulting tables of correlations factor-analyzed for the sexes separately. Of interest for the study of personality was a factor containing loadings on extraversion, field dependence, speed on the Stroop colour and word naming tasks, and Stroop interference. Loadings were much higher and more clearly marked for men than for women. Women were significantly more field-dependent than men. The results are in line with expectation.
