Spelling and Learning Style in Children.

Riding, R. J.; Tempest, J.

Educational Psychology, v6 n4 p313-20 1986

Seventy-two 11-year-old students were tested on 32 dictated words containing two levels of both visual and phonemic complexity. Students were grouped within sexes on their extraversion scores on the Junior Eysenck Personality Inventory and quotients on the Raven's Matrices. Spelling performance was found to interact significantly with level of extraversion, Reven's score, and sex. (Author/JDH)
