摘要

小组嵌入图测试(GEFT)测量一个人从给定背景中取出或取出特定物体的能力。超脱的能力已被证明是解决问题的必要技能，因此被认为是对工程感兴趣的个人的必要特征。因此，GEFT有可能被用作工程专业学生成功的预测指标。为了验证这一假设，研究人员将GEFT发给了诺克斯维尔田纳西大学(University of Tennessee In Knoxville)的工科本科生(学业成绩有高有低)和文科学生的对照组。本文提出了比较的结果和对提高工科学生成绩的启示。

The performance of engineering students on the Group Embedded Figures Test

The Group Embedded Figures Test (GEFT) measures the ability of a person to disembed or pull out specified objects from a given background. The ability to disembed has been shown to be a necessary skill in problem solving and is consequently thought of as a necessary trait for individuals interested in engineering. Therefore, the GEFT has the potential to be used as a predictor of student success in an engineering program. In order to test this hypothesis, the GEFT was given to undergraduate engineering students (with both high and low academic success) and to a control group of liberal arts students at The University of Tennessee in Knoxville. The paper presents the results of the comparisons and the implications for improving engineering student performance.
