Are developments in mental scanning and mental rotation related? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The development and relation of mental scanning and mental rotation were examined in 4-, 6-, 8-, 10-year old children and adults (N = 102). Based on previous findings from adults and ageing populations, the key question was whether they develop as a set ...

Sex differences in gray matter volume of the right anterior hippocampus explain sex differences in three-dimensional mental rotation

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
Behavioral studies have reported that males perform better than females in 3-dimensional (3D) mental rotation. Given the important role of the hippocampus in spatial processing, the present study investigated whether structural differences in the ...

Mental rotation of tactual stimuli

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 1990
Three experiments involving different angular orientations of tactual shapes were performed. In experiment 1 subjects were timed as they made 'same-different' judgments about two successive rotated shapes. Results showed that no rotation effect is obtained, i.e., reaction times and error percentage do not increase linearly with rotation angle. The same

The effect of internal and external visualization of rotation on postural stability

open access: yesFrontiers in Cognition
IntroductionDuring mental rotation tasks, it is assumed that participants visualize a rotation of objects in their minds (internal visualization), but mental rotation has also been linked to the visible rotation of objects on a screen (external ...

Emotion and affect in mental imagery: Do fear and anxiety manipulate mental rotation performance?

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Little is known about the effects of fear as a basic emotion on mental rotation performance. We expected that the emotional arousal evoked by fearful stimuli presented prior to each mental rotation trial would enhance mental rotation performance ...

Impaired mental rotation in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and acute vestibular neuritis.

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
Vestibular processing is fundamental to our sense of orientation in space which is a core aspect of the representation of the self. Vestibular information is processed in a large subcortical-cortical neural network.

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Visual and Haptic Mental Rotation

open access: yesi-Perception, 2011
It is well known that visual information can be retained in several types of memory systems. Haptic information can also be retained in a memory because we can repeat a hand movement. There may be a common memory system for vision and action.

Enhanced effective connectivity from the middle frontal gyrus to the parietal lobe is associated with impaired mental rotation after total sleep deprivation: An electroencephalogram study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Sleep deprivation impairs cognitive functions, including attention, memory, and decision-making. Studies on the neuro-electro-physiological mechanisms underlying total sleep deprivation (TSD) that impairs spatial cognition are limited.
