Abstract
14 daydreaming Ss were compared to 14 nondaydreaming Ss according to the results obtained from psychometric tests and school questionnaires. The daydreamers' scores on the Bender-Gestalt test and on the performance section of the WISC were appreciably more variable than those of the nondaydreamers. This implies heterogeneity within the group of daydreamers. According to their classroom teachers, daydreamers were more likely to have problems with flexibility, distraction, ability to persist at a task, peer relations, and arithmetic. These findings suggest that daydreaming does not occur as an isolated entity.
