Tujuan Penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan profil berpikir kritis peserta didik yang memiliki tipe kognitif reflektif dan impulsif. Subjek penelitian ini adalah peserta didik kelas VIII MTs Muhammadiyah 1 Malang. Untuk mendapatkan kelompok gaya kognitif dilakukan Matching Familiar Figures Test (MFFT), kemudian pada masing–masing kelompok dipilih 2 subjek dengan memperhatikan kemampuan komunikasi peserta didik saat mengeluarkan gagasan secara lisan maupun tertulis sesuai hasil wawancara dengan guru matematika. Keempat subjek diberikan soal pemecahan masalah untuk mengetahui profil masing- masing gaya kognitif. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa peserta didik reflektif mampu memahami masalah, setiap keputusan disertai dengan alasan yang relevan, penarikan kesimpulan tepat, mampu menjelaskan kesimpulan yang dibuat dengan baik serta tidak melakukan overview. Sedangkan untuk peserta didik dengan gaya kognitif impulsif mampu memahami masalah, beberapa alasan yang dikemukakan tidak relevan sehingga penarikan kesimpulan yang dilakukan kurang tepat, dan melakukan overview pada soal yang dirasa mudah. Persamaan peserta didik reflektif dan impulsif terletak pada focus sedangkan perbedaannya terletak pada reason, inference, situation, clarity, dan overview.

The relationship between cognitive impulsivity, as measured by Kagan's Matching Familiar Figures Test (MFF), and interpersonal popularity was investigated in a sample of 42 “predelinquent” preadolescent boys in a residential setting. Predictions that the relationship would vary with the specific sociometric situations sampled were generally not confirmed. In fact, both the latency and errors dimensions of the MFF proved to have comparatively little association with social status, with age and intelligence demonstrating much stronger correlations with sociometric scores. Similarities to, and differences from, results with nondelinquent populations are discussed, as are implications for attempts at modifying cognitive style.

A probabilistic model of reflection-impulsivity as measured by the Matching Familiar Figures Test (MFFT) is presented and tested on 77 fourth graders. In testing the model two groups emerged, a random response group ( n = 22) and a cognitive response group ( n = 55), who use the evaluation process. Correlations among latencies, total errors, initial errors, school-scores, and IQs were compared for our total sample and the two groups. The correlation of MFFT latencies and errors disappeared for the random-response group and new correlations with errors appeared while the cognitive response group kept a statistically significant correlation of latencies with errors and no other error correlation was shown. This last group was classified by Kagan's median-split procedure showing that most reflective subjects kept their classification. Preliminary results suggest a reinterpretation of reflection-impulsivity literature, especially as related to the impulsive style.

Thirty-nine subjects participated in an experiment designed to evaluate the influence of the reflective-impulsive cognitive style on visual inspection. The Matching Familiar Figures Test (MFFT) was used to classify subjects as reflectives (longer times, fewer errors), impulsives (shorter times, more errors), fast-accurates (shorter times, fewer errors), and slow-inaccurates (longer times, more errors). Following administration of the MFFT, subjects participated in a laboratory visual inspection task. Results from the inspection task indicate that the MFFT groups coalesced along an accuracy rather than a speed dimension. The more accurate groups (reflectives and fast-accurates) were significantly faster than the inaccurates (impulsives and slow-inaccurates) in detecting certain flaws, and they made fewer size-judgment errors. However, the inaccurates detected more flaws, (i.e., made fewer search errors) than did the accurates. These results are interpreted in terms of the possible cognitive styles affecting inspection performance.
