Mental Rotation is Not Easily Cognitively Penetrable [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
When participants take part in mental imagery experiments, are they using their "tacit knowledge" of perception to mimic what they believe should occur in the corresponding perceptual task?

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 ...

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 ...

Comparison of Mental Rota tion and Reaction Time Performances In Deaf Athletes And Non-Athletes

open access: yesSpormetre Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Bilimleri Dergisi, 2022
The coordination of perceptual-cognitive and motor processes is one of the main components that determine performance in sports.

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.

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.

Visual mental imagery during caloric vestibular stimulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We investigated high-resolution mental imagery and mental rotation, while the participants received caloric vestibular stimulation. High-resolution visual mental imagery tasks have been shown to activate early visual cortex, which is deactivated by ...

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

Mental rotation in Williams syndrome: an impaired imagery ability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Typically developing young children and individuals with intellectual disabilities often perform poorly on mental rotation tasks when the stimulus they are rotating lacks a salient component.

Differential neural encoding of sensorimotor and visual body representations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sensorimotor processing specifically impacts mental body representations. In particular, deteriorated somatosensory input (as after complete spinal cord injury) increases the relative weight of visual aspects of body parts' representations, leading to ...
