Visual and Haptic Mental Rotation [PDF]

open access: goldi-Perception, 2011
It is well known that visual information can be retained in several types of memory systems. Haptic information can also be retained in a memory because we can repeat a hand movement. There may be a common memory system for vision and action.

A Novel Approach to Assessing Infant and Child Mental Rotation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Intelligence, 2023
Mental rotation is a critically important, early developing spatial skill that is related to other spatial cognitive abilities. Understanding the early development of this skill, however, requires a developmentally appropriate assessment that can be used

Mental rotation and visual familiarity [PDF]

open access: bronzePerception & Psychophysics, 1985
Mental rotation functions often evidence a curvilinear trend indicating relative indifference to small departures from the upright. In Experiment 1, this was true only for normal letters whereas reflected letters yielded a largely linear rotation function.

Are developments in mental scanning and mental rotation related? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The development and relation of mental scanning and mental rotation were examined in 4-, 6-, 8-, 10-year old children and adults (N = 102). Based on previous findings from adults and ageing populations, the key question was whether they develop as a set ...

A general spatial transformation process? Assessing the neurophysiological evidence on the similarity of mental rotation and folding [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroImage: Reports, 2022
Mental rotation and mental folding are established as archetypal mental spatial transformation tasks. Yet, it is uncertain as to whether these tasks rely on a general spatial transformation mechanism or on dedicated processes.

Effect of dynamic balance on human mental rotation task in female badminton vs. volleyball players [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2023
BackgroundThe present study aims to compare the mental rotation performance between two non-contact sports (i.e., badminton and volleyball) in different upright conditions (i.e., with and without dynamic balance).MethodsThirty-five female sports and ...

Degraded Visibility Body-Specifically Affects Mental Rotation [PDF]

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences
The way we perceive our own body is shaped by our perception. Changes in sensory input, such as visual degradation, can lead to visual-to-motor shifts in the reference frame used to mentally represent the body.

The impact of presentation modes on mental rotation processing: a comparative analysis of eye movements and performance [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Mental rotation is the ability to rotate mental representations of objects in space. Shepard and Metzler’s shape-matching tasks, frequently used to test mental rotation, involve presenting pictorial representations of 3D objects.

A Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy Examination of the Neural Correlates of Mental Rotation for Individuals With Different Depressive Tendencies

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
The present study aimed to examine the neural mechanisms underlying the ability to process the mental rotation with mirrored stimuli for different depressive tendencies with psychomotor retardation. Using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), we
