A Structural Theory of Spatial Abilities [PDF]
Applied Psychological Measurement, 1990 A cylindrical-wedge model is proposed to represent the correlational structure of a variety of spatial ability tests. The model corresponds to the design of the tests' content, according to three facets: (1) type of rule task, (2) dimensionality of the test items, and (3) need to mentally rotate test objects in space.

Study of a MEMS-based Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor with adjustable pupil sampling for astronomical adaptive optics [PDF]
, 2008 We introduce a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor for adaptive optics that enables dynamic control of the spatial sampling of an incoming wavefront using a segmented mirror microelectrical mechanical systems (MEMS) device.

The Effects of Display Parameters and Devices on Spatial Ability Test Times
Applied Sciences, 2022 The effects of display parameters and devices are examined on spatial ability test times in virtual environments. Before the investigation, completion times of 240 and 61 students were measured, using an LG desktop display and the Gear VR, respectively ...

Videogame interventions and spatial ability interactions [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 Numerous research studies have been conducted on the use of videogames as tools to improve one's cognitive abilities. While meta-analyses and qualitative reviews have provided evidence that some aspects of cognition such as spatial imagery are modified after exposure to videogames, other evidence has shown that matrix reasoning measures of fluid ...

Four-dimensional ultrafast electron microscopy of phase transitions [PDF]
, 2006 Reported here is direct imaging (and diffraction) by using 4D ultrafast electron microscopy (UEM) with combined spatial and temporal resolutions. In the first phase of UEM, it was possible to obtain snapshot images by using timed, single-electron packets;

Relationship between spatial ability, visuospatial working memory and self-assessed spatial orientation ability: a study in older adults [PDF]
, 2015 This paper describes some novel spatial tasks and questionnaires designed to assess spatial and orientation abilities. The new tasks and questionnaires were administered to a sample of 90 older adults (41 males, age range 57–90), along with some other ...
