This study sought to investigate the factors related to performance, specifically in an educational statistics course of students enrolled in the Faculty of Educational Studies, University Patra Malaysia. A random sample of second and third-year students were selected for the study. The Group Embedded Figures Test (GEFT) was used to gather data on students' teaming style (Wilkins et al., 1977). The GEFT was used to assess the learning style of students as either field-dependent or fieldĀ independent. It wav found that 81.2 percent of the students were inclined towards field-dependent teaming style whilst 18.8 percent were inclined toward field-independent learning style. A correlational analysis indicated that teaming style was significant correlated with performance. Twenty nine percent of the variance in students' performance wav uniquely accounted for by the linear combination of teaming style, gender, program of study, and age.
