Synopsis

Considerable attention has been devoted to cognitive styles – individual differences in perceiving and processing information – since the beginning of the previous century, leading to a wide diversity of cognitive style theories. Cognitive styles recently also gained prominence within the domains of organisational behaviour and management as they are a relevant addition to the personality and ability constructs. This book reports on the development and validation of the Cognitive Style Indicator (CoSI), an interesting new 18-item style instrument for use with professional and managerial groups. Qualitative as well as quantitative evidence – gained through three different studies – is given to demonstrate the reliability, validity, and valence of this new model. This book is particularly interesting for people – scholars as well as practitioners – who want to learn more about the theory, measurement, and practical relevance of cognitive styles.
