Mental rotation and perceptual uprightness [PDF]
Performance in Cooper and Shepard’s (1973) mental rotation task was examined in the context of a model that defined the extent to which alphabet letters could be tilted from their normal orientation and still be perceptually upright. For letters with a broad range of orientations for which they remain perceptually upright, a nonlinear effect of ...

Sex Differences in Gains Among Hispanic Pre-kindergartners’ Mental Rotation Skills
The current study explores change in mental rotation skills throughout the pre-kindergarten year in a Hispanic population to better understand the development of early sex differences in mental rotation. Ninety-six Hispanic children (M = 4 years 8 months)

Sex differences in eye movements and neural oscillations during mental rotation in virtual reality
Virtual reality (VR) has been a promising tool for developing visuospatial tasks. Among visuospatial tasks, mental rotation tasks are widely used in the assessment of visuospatial ability.

Motor processes in mental rotation [PDF]
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. For example, rotation may be guided by processes that also prime one to see results of a specific motor action.

The relation between mental and manual rotation was investigated in 2 experiments. Experiment 1 compared the response times (RTs) of mental rotation about 4 axes in space with the RTs shown in the same task when participants were allowed to reorient the stimuli by means of rotational hand movements.

Mental rotation performance in male soccer players. [PDF]
It is the main goal of this study to investigate the visual-spatial cognition in male soccer players. Forty males (20 soccer players and 20 non-athletes) solved a chronometric mental rotation task with both cubed and embodied figures (human figures, body
