Visual and Haptic Mental Rotation [PDF]
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]
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]
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]
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]
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]
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]
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]
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.
