Preventing Response Elimination Strategies Improves the Convergent Validity of Figural Matrices
Several studies have shown that figural matrices can be solved with one of two strategies: (1) Constructive matching consisting of cognitively generating an idealized response, which is then compared with the options provided by the response format; or ...

Figural Effects in a Syllogistic Evaluation Paradigm: An Inspection-Time Analysis. [PDF]
Robust biases have been found in syllogistic reasoning that relate to the figure of premises and to the directionality of terms in given conclusions. Mental models theorists (e.g., Johnson-Laird & Byrne, 1991) have explained figural bias by assuming that

Functional alterations in neural substrates of geometric reasoning in adults with high-functioning autism. [PDF]
Individuals with autism spectrum condition (ASC) are known to excel in some perceptual cognitive tasks, but such developed functions have been often regarded as "islets of abilities" that do not significantly contribute to broader intellectual capacities.
