Guidelines for ceiling diffusion or absorption?

Are there guidelines for ceiling treatments - diffusion vs absorption? I have GIK treatments on the walls, my speakers are Quad electrostatics in a 14' x 16' x 8' room, and I listen fairly near-field. Thanks for your suggestions.

Every room is a little different. Something like the Quads have a somewhat limited vertical dispersion so diffusion at the reflection points would likely not benefit you much.
That said, there are some issues with 8' ceilings that something like a pair of 244's over your head (not at reflections) would help.
