Cube-copying is often used to assess constructional ability of brain-damaged patients and the influence of unilateral spatial neglect is often pointed out in patients with right hemisphere lesions. However, some patients with severe neglect perform cube-copying satisfactorily. The aim of the present study is to identify the factors that affect the performance of cube-copying in patients with le...

There is a lack in the literature of studies that investigate the human factors involved in the engagement of presence. The present study is addressed to investigate the influence of five user’s characteristics (spatial intelligence, personality, cognitive style, computer experience and test anxiety) on the sense of presence. This study is the first one to investigate the relationship between s...

This paper explores the possibilities of adopting Business Intelligence (BI), and Geographic Information System (GIS) to build a spatial intelligence and predictive analytical approach. The proposed approach will help in solving spatial problem which faces decision makers at health sector. The proposed spatial analytical approach will cover three main health planning issues. These issues are ta...

Introduction Most definitions of intelligence focus on capabilities that are relevant to scholastic performances. However, there are seven forms of intelligences. There is a lack of data on multiple intelligences in Indian children. Hence, this study was conducted to assess different forms of intelligences in students and compared these diverse intelligences with intelligence quotient (IQ) scor...

Working memory and processing speed are related to intelligence. This study measures concurrently working memory, processing speed and processing efficiency along with fluid, crystallized and spatial intelligence. Two hundred sixty five participants took part in the study. The findings show that working memory and processing efficiency predict fluid, but not crystallized and spatial intelligenc...

There are several studies showing that working memory and intelligence are strongly related. However, working memory tasks require simultaneous processing and storage, so the causes of their relationship with intelligence are currently a matter of discussion. The present study examined the simultaneous relationships among short-term memory (STM), working memory (WM), and general intelligence ( ...
