Historical evolution of spatial abilities
- Behavioural Neurology
, 1993
"... Historical evolution and cross-cultural differences in spatial abilities are analyzed. Spatial abilities have been found to be significantly associated with the complexity of geographical conditions and survival demands. Although impaired spatial cognition is found in cases of, exclusively or predo ..."

Spatial ability and throwing accuracy
- Behavior Genetics
, 1983
"... Significant correlations have been found between several tests of throwing accuracy and spatial ability. This replicates an earlier finding and sup-ports the hypothesis that past selection acting on hunting skills in males may partly account for the superior spatial ability observed in males today. ..."

Spatial ability of engineering students
- Annales Mathematicae et Informatica
, 2007
"... dents. In the beginning of the semester on the first week we examined with a test whether the students have sufficient differences between their spatial ability, their fundamental knowledge on descriptive geometry, since it is es-sential for the students to look at projections and to make operations ..."

Spatial Ability and Learning to Program
"... Abstract. Results in introductory programming modules are often disappointing, and various individual differences have been found to be of relevance. This paper reviews work in this area, with particular reference to the effect of a student’s spatial ability. Data is presented on a cohort of 49 stud ..."

Influence of spatial ability in . . .
, 2006
"... Breadcrumbs are a type of navigational aid intended to help users of large well-structured websites by providing information about the location of the current webpage within the site’s structure. The phenomenon of user disorientation (feeling lost) when using hypertext in abstract information-rich ..."
Abstract
- Add to MetaCart
-rich environments such as WWW-based directories is well known. Earlier experiments have been unable to explain why visual mediators that improve navigation for people with lower Spatial Ability (SA) seems to have the opposite effect for other people. Results from our experiment indicate that spatial ability
Studies on Spatial Ability
"... This study reports on cultural and gender differences in the spatial abilities of children based on the Water Level Task. The Piagetian theory of age-related developmental differences in performance on the Water Level Task was explored with Chinese and Malay children living in Singapore. Results ind ..."

The Influence of Spatial Ability on Multimedia Learning
"... Multimedia instructions, in which information is presented in multiple formats, afford better learning than instructions presented in a single format. Multimedia formatting is either multimodal, using audition (e.g., spoken words) and vision (e.g., pictures), or unimodal, using text and pictures. Sp ..."
Abstract
- Add to MetaCart
. Spatial ability has been found to moderate the multimodal multimedia effect, but not the unimodal effect with visual materials. In the current study, participants received unimodal lessons about three physical systems in textual or pictorial-and-textual format. The multimedia effect was greater
