Motor processes in mental rotation [PDF]
Cognition, 1997 Much indirect evidence supports the hypothesis that transformations of mental images are at least in part guided by motor processes, even in the case of images of abstract objects rather than of body parts.

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

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

Mental rotation and visual familiarity [PDF]
Perception & 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.

Gender Differences in Mental Rotational Training Based on Computer Adaptive Tests
Behavioral Sciences, 2023 Mental rotation tasks have been widely used to assess individuals’ spatial cognition and the ability to mentally manipulate objects. This study employed a computerized adaptive training method to investigate the behavioral performance of participants of ...

Mental rotation of faces [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 1988 The effect of orientation upon face recognition was explored in two experiments, which used a procedure adapted from the mental rotation literature. In the first experiment, a linear increase in the RT of same-different judgments was found as the second of a pair of sequentially presented faces was rotated away from the vertical.
