SUMMARY The cognitive styles of reflection‐impulsivity, field‐dependence‐independence, and constricted‐flexible control were studied in 70 hyperactive adults and 42 matched controls as part of a follow‐up study. Results indicated that the hyperactive adults were more field‐dependent and more constricted than the controls. They were also less accurate although they did not respond more quickly than the controls on a visual matching task. The educational implications of this are discussed.
