Effects of Using Mental and Manual Rotation Training on Mental and Manual Rotation Performance
The goal of this project was to examine how training either mental or manual (virtual) rotation, affects performance gains on either a mental or a manual rotation task. In Experiment 1, we examined improvement on a manual rotation task following practice in mental rotation, manual rotation and a control condition. Practice in mental but not manual rotation lead to improved performance on manual...
متن کاملMental and manual rotation.
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. For the 3 Cartesian axes, RT functions were quantitatively indistinguishable. Experiment 2 inves...
متن کاملMental rotation ability of children with spina bifida: what influence does manual rotation training have?
We investigated the mental rotation ability of children with spina bifida, a malformation of the spinal cord due to a neural tube defect, and how it is influenced by a manual rotation training. In comparison to a healthy control group these children showed longer reaction times and a higher number of errors in a computer-based mental rotation test. Furthermore, a manual rotation training was ap...
متن کاملTouching up mental rotation: effects of manual experience on 6-month-old infants' mental object rotation.
In this study, 6-month-olds' ability to mentally rotate objects was investigated using the violation-of-expectation paradigm. Forty infants watched an asymmetric object being moved straight down behind an occluder. When the occluder was lowered, it revealed the original object (possible) or its mirror image (impossible) in one of five orientations. Whereas half of the infants were allowed to ma...
متن کاملMental rotation: cross-task training and generalization.
It is well established that performance on standard mental rotation tasks improves with training (Peters et al., 1995), but thus far there is little consensus regarding the degree of transfer to other tasks which also involve mental rotation. In Experiment 1, we assessed the effect of mental rotation training on participants' Mental Rotation Test (MRT) scores. Twenty-eight participants were ran...
