Four Ss continuously reported the direction of autokinetic movement during 20 10-min. sessions. Individual patterns of directional dominance and change in direction over the 20 sessions were assessed by means of the Kendall coefficient of concordance. Individual patterns of directional dominance were consistent; the range of values of W for the four Ss was from 0.619 to 0.791. The individual patterns of direction change were generally less consistent; the range of W was from 0.242 to 0.704.
