Identifying solution strategies in a mental-rotation test with gender-stereotyped objects by analyzing gaze patterns

open access: yesJournal of Eye Movement Research, 2021
Many studies deal with solution strategies in mental-rotation tests. The approaches range from global analysis, attention to object parts, holistic and piecemeal strategy to a combined strategy.

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

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.

Spatial anxiety mediates the sex difference in adult mental rotation test performance

open access: yesCognitive Research, 2020
Mental rotation ability is associated with successful advances in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education and occupations. Meta-analyses have shown consistent sex disparities in mental rotation, where men outperform women on ...

Does left-right discrimination ability of adults change with age?

open access: yesJournal of Human Environmental Studies, 2020
Age-related changes in left-right discrimination, which mainly reflect visuospatial processing, were investigated. We developed a modified version of the Money Road-Map Test (MRMT: Money et al., 1965), which assesses the accuracy of left-right ...

The Effect of Motor and Cognitive Experiences on Mental Rotation Ability in Boys [PDF]

open access: yesرشد و یادگیری حرکتی ورزشی, 2015
Mental rotation is the ability to imagine how an object will look if rotated away from the orientation in comparison with the one which is actually presented. That is a component of spatial abilities.

Sex Differences in Gains Among Hispanic Pre-kindergartners’ Mental Rotation Skills

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
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

open access: yesMedicine in Novel Technology and Devices, 2023
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.

Three-Year-Olds Solved a Mental Rotation Task Above Chance Level, but No Linear Relation Concerning Reaction Time and Angular Disparity Presented Itself

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Three-year-olds and 4-year-olds have severe difficulties solving standard mental rotation tasks. Only 5-year-olds solve such tasks above chance reliably.

Strengthening spatial reasoning: elucidating the attentional and neural mechanisms associated with mental rotation skill development

open access: yesCognitive Research, 2020
Spatial reasoning is a critical skill in many everyday tasks and in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines. The current study examined how training on mental rotation (a spatial reasoning task) impacts the completeness of an ...
