Spatial intelligence is the ability to create, remember, recall, and transform visual images, no matter what angle of rotation you see it in. This form of intelligence was born out of Howard Gardner’s ...
Men consistently outperform women on spatial tasks, including mental rotation, which is the ability to identify how a 3-D object would appear if rotated in space. Now, a University of Iowa study shows ...
Young children who practice visual working memory and reasoning tasks improve their math skills more than children who focus on spatial rotation exercises, according to a large study by researchers at ...
Research has found that structured block-building games improve spatial abilities in children to a greater degree than board games. Research from Indiana University has found that structured ...
Men are not better than women at spatial cognition -- such as map reading -- is the principal finding from ground-breaking work. Men are not better than women at spatial cognition -- such as map ...
Good theories of mental illnesses such as schizophrenia should be able to account for the symptoms. Better theories would also include the features regularly associated with the disorder which are not ...
Ninety years ago, Stanford psychologist Lewis Terman began an ambitious search for the brightest kids in California, administering IQ tests to several thousand of children across the state. Those ...
Culture may hold a spatial place in thought. Social forces profoundly influence people’s ability to think about three-dimensional objects, a new study suggests. In tests of spatial ability, men ...
For all the emphasis placed on science, technology, engineering and math instruction, not much attention is given to a skill set that’s closely related with success in STEM: spatial skills. Sheryl ...
