Prior research has revealed robust and consistent relations between spatial and
mathematical skills. Yet, establishing a causal relation has been met with mixed effects. To …

There is evidence that spatial thinking is malleable, and that spatial and mathematical skills
are associated (Mix et al.[2016] Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 145, 1206; …

Strong spatial skills are associated with success in science, technology, engineering, and
mathematics (STEM) domains. Although there is convincing evidence that spatial skills are a …

Background Although spatial ability and mathematics performance are highly correlated,
there is scant research on the extent to which spatial ability training can improve …

In this article, we review approaches to modeling a connection between spatial and
mathematical thinking across development. We critically evaluate the strengths and …

Much recent research has focused on the relation between spatial skills and mathematical
skills, which has resulted in widely reported links between these two skill sets. However, the …

A pretest-training-posttest design assessed whether training to improve spatial skills also
improved mathematics performance in elementary-aged children. First grade students …

There is increasing evidence for the impact of spatial training on mathematics performance
in early years of education, however little research has focused on secondary school …

There is a well-known relation between spatial ability and mathematics dating back to the
work of early twentieth century factor analysts. This connection is a ripe opportunity for …

Having good spatial skills strongly predicts achievement and attainment in science,
technology, engineering, and mathematics fields (eg, Shea, Lubinski, & Benbow, 2001; Wai …
