The purpose of the study was to compare the visuospatial decision-making error scores related to the perception of biological motion of individuals categorized as fi eld dependent or fi eld independent. A sample of 69 participants aged 18-27 years (M = 21.91, SD = 2.39) that included 33 males and 36 females completed the experiment. Cognitive style was assessed using the Group Embedded Figure Test. Perception of biological motion was evaluated using two different point-light stimuli developed from video images of a ballet dancer’s performance of a correct and incorrect turn in the fi fth position. The results showed that individuals classifi ed as fi eld independent made signifi cantly fewer visuospatial processing errors. The fi ndings are considered and discussed in relation to theoretical perspectives associated with both cognitive processing and cognitive style.
