Object-based and egocentric mental rotation performance in older adults: the importance of gender differences and motor ability

P Jansen, S Kaltner - Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
In this study, mental rotation performance was assessed in both an object-based task,
human figures and letters as stimuli, and in an egocentric-based task, a human figure as a …

Ecological aspects of mental rotation around the vertical and horizontal axis.

C Battista, M Peters - Journal of Individual Differences, 2010 - psycnet.apa.org
Rotation of both natural and man-made objects most commonly requires rotation around the
vertical rather than the horizontal axis because it is relatively rare that we need to rotate, eg …

Sex differences in mental rotation ability are a consequence of procedure and artificiality of stimuli

ML Fisher, T Meredith, M Gray - Evolutionary Psychological Science, 2018 - Springer
Mental rotation is a cognitive process that involves performing rotations on visual images or
objects, which has played a significant role in humans' evolutionary past. Sex differences in …

[PDF][PDF] Mental Rotation Strategies Used by Males/Females and Physical/Social Science Majors: An EEG Study

Y Li, M O'Boyle - researchgate.net
A core component of spatial ability is mental rotation (MR) which refers to the capacity to
rotate images in the mind's eye. It has been suggested that MR tasks can be performed …

[PDF][PDF] Effects of Stimulus Presentation and Sex Role on Sex Differences in Mental Rotation

KK Hughes - Citeseer
Two factors influencing sex differences in mental rotation, stimulus presentation and sex
role, were investigated. Effects of stimulus presentation were explored by comparing scores …

Common processing constraints for visuomotor and visual mental rotations

G Pellizzer, AP Georgopoulos - Experimental Brain Research, 1993 - Springer
Naive human subjects were tested in three different tasks:(1) a visuomotor mental rotation
task, in which the subjects were instructed to move a cursor at a given angle from a stimulus …

Sex differences in mental rotation: the role of stereotyped material, perceived performance and extrinsic spatial ability

M Rahe, P Jansen - Journal of Cognitive Psychology, 2022 - Taylor & Francis
