ELECTROMAZE PERFORMANCE OF GRADUATE STUDENTS IN PHYSICS AND AMERICAN STUDIES

Abstract

Seven electromaze problems were administered to Physics and American Studies majors. All but 1 physicist completed the problem series; more than 1/4 of the American Studies group could not solve 1 or more problems. There were significant differences between the variabilities and the means of the trials for the first 2 problems, but no significant differences between the means of time scores. The correlation between the total time and the number of moves was significant for the physicists, but not for the American Studies group. The correlations between the Miller Verbal Analogies and the electromaze scores were not significant.
