Cerebral lateralization and spatial ability

Behavior Genetics, 1976
Frequencies of three cerebral dominance genotypes who show right or left ear superiority on a verbal dichotic listening test and left or right field superiority on a tachistoscopic lateral field test of perceptual dominance are deduced. A hypothesis is offered relating direction of cerebral dominance, as defined by genotype, to degree of lateral ...

Spatial Ability and Training in Virtual Neuroanatomy

2013
Neuroanatomy is one of the most challenging sections of anatomy to learn, partially related to the intricate relation of multiple 3D structures. As part of the medical student curriculum, it is usually taught in 2D using illustrations and plastinated brain section, since the number of hours devoted to anatomy have dropped in the curriculum, making the ...

Spatial abilities in early childhood

2018 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE), 2018
Spatial abilities are the capacity to comprehend shapes of objects, their positions and the spatial relations among objects. This paper, which establishes that spatial abilities belong to engineering abilities, presents a set of learning activities that promote the development of spatial abilities in early childhood, thereby proving that engineering ...

Assessment of Spatial Abilities

1998
Analyzing and understanding spatial ability is a complex enterprise. By way of illustration, consider the following daily life activities that contain a spatial aspect: parallel parking an automobile, rearranging living room furniture, reading a blueprint, giving directions to a lost traveler, deciphering the instructions that accompany an item that ...

Understanding spatial ability

Educational Psychologist, 1984
Spatial ability is discussed in terms of psychometric factors and information processing research. Reanalysis of major psychometric studies suggests two major spatial factors — spatial relations and spatial visualization ability. Apparent differences between these factors in speed versus power and cognitive complexity are verified by process analyses ...

Spatial and Praxic Abilities

1994
The Complex Figure Test was designed by Rey (1941) to assess visual perception and visual memory in brain-damaged subjects. In 1944, Osterrieth administered the Rey figure to 230 children ranging in age from 4 to 15 years old and to 60 adults between 16 and 60 years old (Lezak, 1983). In 1969, Taylor made an alternative figure to be used for retesting (

Training Spatial Ability

1981
The ability to create a mental image of an object and then to manipulate it mentally has significant practical application in fields such as mathematics, physics, architecture, engineering and design. It is documented that success in these fields is highly predicted by one’s ability to visualize and manipulate objects (e.g. Ghiselli, 1966).

Components of Spatial Ability

1986
Three areas of theory and research related to spatial cognition are reviewed and their integration is discussed. These include factor analysis of spatial ability, information processing theories of spatial cognition, and developmental changes in spatial processing.

Improving Spatial Abilities

The significance of spatial skills for success in STEM fields has been established through several interdisciplinary studies. In the study presented in this paper, we investigated how comprehensive training in programming using turtle graphics or educational robotics can positively impact high school (MAge = 15.31 years) novices’ spatial skills.
