The relationships between field dependence and pain threshold and tolerance under thermal pain, and pain estimation and changes of heart rate under cold pressor pain were investigated with ninety-one surgical patients admitted into the National Cancer Center Hospital. Subjects were subdivided into three groups according to their scores of EFT.Results : 1. No significant relation was found between field dependence and age.2. FDs showed significantly higher pain threshold than FIs.3. With regard to cold pressor pain, FIs were most sensitive in estimating pain, and showed greatest heart rate changes.4. Positive correlation was found between EFT and Block Design test as previously reported.5. FDs showed significantly higher trait anxiety (STAI) than did the other two groups.Above mentioned results suggested that perceptual style was a new and important dimension to understanding of experimental pain, and that further psychosomatic investigation had to be made.
