Similarities between explicit and implicit motor imagery in mental rotation of hands: an EEG study [PDF]
, 2014 Chronometric and imaging studies have shown that motor imagery is used implicitly during mental rotation tasks in which subjects for example judge the laterality of human hand pictures at various orientations.

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

A New Set of Three-Dimensional Shapes for Investigating Mental Rotation Processes: Validation Data and Stimulus Set [PDF]
, 2015 Mental rotation is one of the most influential paradigms in the history of cognitive psychology. In this paper, we present a new set of validated mental rotation stimuli to be used freely by the scientific community.

Is there a threshold for mental rotation? [PDF]
Bulletin of the Psychonomic Society, 1986 A threshold-like nonlinearity was found in a mental rotation experiment designed for relatively heavy sampling of small angular disparities. The value of the threshold in this experiment appeared to be around 15°. Results of a control experiment were that subjects easily discriminated orientations differing by as little as 6° using the same stimulus ...

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1998 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 AND TEMPORAL CONTINGENCIES [PDF]
Journal 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 performance in male soccer players. [PDF]
PLoS 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
