In this study, the relationship between ethnicity and cognitive styles was examined. Past literature (Witkin, 1978) suggested that African Americans and other ethnic groups were field-dependent learners. However, more recent studies (Dunn & Dunn, 1991; Saracho, 1999) have given mixed results regarding processing. This study included a sample of 159 prerequisite math students at a large southeastern university. The sample was administered the Gregorc Style Delineator (1982) to determine participants' cognitive style. Results revealed that no particular ethnicity demonstrated an affinity for one cognitive style. However, African Americans were more likely to have a concrete cognitive style, which is juxtaposed to previous studies. (Contains 4 tables.)
