What is rotated in mental rotation?

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 1984
Two hypotheses regarding mental rotation were contrasted. If subjects rotate each stimulus image to the upright (the image rotation hypothesis), then response time should depend solely on the extent of angular deviation from the upright. But if subjects rotate their frame of reference to match that of the disoriented stimulus (the frame rotation ...

The Mental Rotation Ability of Expert Basketball Players: Identifying On-Court Plays

Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2020
Purpose: The purpose was (1) to test a new version of a mental rotation task (MRT), which assesses mental rotation abilities of men and women for sport-specific items, and (2) to investigate potential differences in MRT performance, which are based on ...

A Positive Relationship Between Sign Language Comprehension and Mental Rotation Abilities.

Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2020
Past work investigating spatial cognition suggests better mental rotation abilities for those who are fluent in a signed language. However, no prior work has assessed whether fluency is needed to achieve this performance benefit or what it may look like ...

Mental rotation in schizophrenia

Consciousness and Cognition, 2006
Motor imagery provides a direct insight into action representations. The aim of the present study was to investigate the level of impairment of action monitoring in schizophrenia by evaluating the performance of schizophrenic patients on mental rotation tasks.

The mental rotation flap

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 2011
Two types of random pattern rotation flaps around the chin are described for the closure of small to moderate defects of the lateral chin. Over an 18 month period (September 2007-April 2008) three patients with a mean age of 74 years had skin cancers excised as an outpatient under local anaesthetic, leaving skin defects from 2.0×1.9 cm to 1.9×2.9 cm ...

Mental rotation by the blind: Does mental rotation depend on visual imagery?

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1976
Congentially blind adventitiously blind, and blindfolded sighted adults made same-different judgments of pairs of tactile forms. Two forms were presented in the same orientation, or one form differed from the other by a clockwise rotation of 30 degrees, 60 degrees, 120 degrees, or 150 degrees.

Toward a chronopsychophysiology of mental rotation

Psychophysiology, 2002
In a parity judgment task, the ERPs at parietal electrode sites become the more negative the more mental rotation has to be executed. In two experiments, it was investigated whether a temporal relationship exists between the onset of this amplitude modulation and the moment when mental rotation is executed.

Mental rotation, physical rotation, and surface media.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1992
Subjects made mirror-normal discriminations on alphanumeric characters shown in different orientations in the picture plane. Either the characters or the background rotated during stimulus presentation in Experiments 1-3. Character rotation in the direction of mental rotation facilitated mental rotation, whereas rotation in the opposite direction ...

Handedness and Mental Rotation

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1978
Handedness and mental rotation test scores were examined by sex and generation for 801 individuals in 200 families. An orderly relationship between bilateralization of function on the hand preference task and mental rotation test scores was found.

How Motion-Control Influences a VR-Supported Technology for Mental Rotation Learning: From the Perspectives of Playfulness, Gender Difference and Technology Acceptance Model

International journal of human computer interactions, 2019
Spatial training has been shown to help student’s university retention rates and performance. The goal of this study is: (1) to explore users’ acceptance of a virtual-reality-supported technology for mental-rotation learning and (2) to examine the ...
