The purpose of the research was to explore if there are differences in visual and spatial functions in a group of drivers with regard to the male/female sex. It has been assumed that the sex as well as ability of driving a car, are in connection with efficiency of visual and spatial functions. In the research, using the IPP test, it has been taken into consideration differences between participants with regard to the biological as well as psychological gender. There were 60 people who participated in the research: age between 20 and 45. The participants were people who possessed a driving license and people who are unable to drive a car. Visual and spatial functions were tested by the test of Spatial Imagination, the R-W Test and the Poppelreuter’s Test. The reqults indicate that men are more efficient than women as regards visual and spatial functions. However, the relation between ability of driving a car and efficiency of visual and spatial function has not been confirmed.

The purpose of the study was to define structures of connections between the temperamental and cognitive factors as predictors of field dependence-independence. It was assumed that both the structure of temperament traits and cognitive mechanisms manifest themselves in tasks used for measuring cognitive styles. 108 participants (77 women, aged 21 +/- 2.6) took part in the experiment. Embedded Figure Test (EFT) was used as a measure of field dependence-independence; Formal of Characteristics of Behaviour Temperament Inventory /FCB-TI/ for temperament structure, and three computerized tasks as indicators of wide spectrum of attention and working memory functioning. Three hypothetical models in path analysis were verified. The best fit of the results obtained is provided by the model comprising two groups of factors: (1) two energetic temperamental factors: endurance and emotional reactivity, and (2) two cognitive factors: efficiency of selective attention (resistance to distraction) and efficiency of visual-spatial sketch pad. The data was discussed from temperamental, cognitive and developmental perspectives.

Poszukiwano odpowiedzi na pytania: czy osoby ulegające złudzeniom kształtu i kierunku ulegają także złudzeniom stałości przechylenia; czy osoby zależne w porównaniu z niezależnymi od pola w ujęciu Witkina charakteryzuje większa podatność na złudzenia; czy kobiety bardziej niż mężczyźni ulegają złudzeniom wzrokowym? Przeprowadzono dwa badania. W pierwszym wzięło udział 75 uczniów (M = 18,5; SD = 0,5), zaś w drugim 31 studentów psychologii (M = 20; SD = 0,5). Zastosowano Rod and Frame Test do badania iluzji Pręta i Ramy, komputerową symulację złudzeń wzrokowych: Zollnera, Poggendorffa, Ponzo, Ebbinghausa, Millera-Lyera oraz EFT Witkina do określania zależności od pola. Okazało się, że kobiety bardziej niż mężczyźni ulegają iluzji Pręta i Ramy, Poggendorffa i Zӧllnera, natomiast zależność od pola nie różnicuje podatności na badane złudzenia. Związki pomiędzy iluzją Pręta i Ramy a pozostałymi złudzeniami uzyskano dla kąta odchylenia ramy od pionu o 15 stopni.

The answers for three questions were sought: 1) whether people who are susceptible to shape and direction illusions are also most prone to illusions of constancy tilt; 2) whether field-dependent persons compared to field-independent are more susceptible to visual illusions; and 3) whether women are more prone to visual illusions than men. 75 high school students (M = 18.5; SD = 0.5) and 31 psychology students (M = 20; SD = 0.5) participated in the study. The Embedded Figures Test was used as a measure of field dependence-independence, Witkin’s Rod and Frame Test as a measure of the rod and frame illusion, whereas susceptibility to illusions (Zӧllner, Poggendorff, Ponzo, Ebbinghaus, Miller-Lyer) was verified with the use of computer tasks. It was revealed that field dependence/independence did not diversify the susceptibility to illusions mentioned above. The study showed differences in the susceptibility to illusions depending on gender. Women appeared to be more susceptible to Rod and Frame, Poggendorff and Zӧllner illusions than men. Correlations between Rod and Frames illusion and other illusions were obtained for the tilt angle of the frame from the vertical by 15 degrees.
