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.

MENTAL ROTATION AND TEMPORAL CONTINGENCIES [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1998
A task that requires subjects to determine whether two forms of the same shape, but in different orientations, are mirror images or identical except for orientation is called a handedness recognition task. Subjects' reaction times (RT) on this task are consistently related to the angular disparity (termed a) between the two presented forms.

Mental rotation and perceptual uprightness [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 1978
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 ...

An early sex difference in the relation between mental rotation and object preference

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2015
Accumulating evidence suggests that males outperform females on mental rotation tasks as early as infancy. Sex differences in object preference have also been shown to emerge early in development and precede sex-typed play in childhood. Although research

‘Mental rotation’ in depth as the superficial correlation of pictures

open access: yesMethods in Psychology, 2020
The Shepard-Metzler effect has been taken as evidence of a mental process of rotation in depth. Simple methods of image processing account for response time differences from the effect as well.

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 ...

Mental rotation performance in male soccer players. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
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

Mirror-normal difference in the late phase of mental rotation: An ERP study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Mirror-normal letter discriminations are thought to require mental rotation in order to transform the rotated alphanumeric character into its canonical orientation.

Mental rotation and visual familiarity [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & 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.
