                         interstellar magnetic field alignment and star formation in twenty 
                         (20) sky regions containing Bok Globules. The presence of young 
                         stellar objects in the globules is verified by a search of 
                         infrared sources with spectral energy distribution compatible with 
                         a pre main-sequence star. The interstellar magnetic field 
                         direction is mapped using optical polarimetry. These maps are used 
                         to estimate the dispersion of the interstellar magnetic field 
                         direction in each region from a Gaussian fit, {\~A} B. In 
                         addition to the Gaussian dispersion, we propose a new parameter, 
                         ·, to measure the magnetic field alignment that does not rely on 
                         any function fitting. Statistical tests show that the dispersion 
                         of the magnetic field direction is different in star forming 
                         globules relative to quiescent globules. Specifically, the less 
                         organised magnetic fields occur in regions having young stellar 
                         objects. © International Astronomical Union 2014.",
