Cognitive Styles and Management Behaviour. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, Oct 2008, Pages: 312
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.
