Only some psychological tests have been the subject of such research. The standard guidelines for interpreting effect size state that 0.2 is a small difference; 0.5 is medium difference, one that would be noticeable to a casual observer; 0.8 is large difference, one that would be obvious to a casual observer.

The Purdue Spatial Visualization Test-Visualization of Rotations (PSVT:R) is a test of spatial visualization ability published by Roland B. Guay in 1977. [1] Many modifications of the test exist. The test consists of thirty questions of increasing difficulty, the standard time limit is 20 minutes. [2] Like most measures of spatial ability, the ...
The cognitive tests used to measure spatial visualization ability including mental rotation tasks like the Mental Rotations Test or mental cutting tasks like the Mental Cutting Test; and cognitive tests like the VZ-1 (Form Board), VZ-2 (Paper Folding), and VZ-3 (Surface Development) tests from the Kit of Factor-Reference cognitive tests produced by Educational Testing Service.
[1] [7] [4] [8] Average differences have been reported, however, on some tests of mathematics and verbal ability in certain contexts. [4] [9] [5] Some studies have suggested that there may be more variability in cognitive ability among males than among females, [9] but others have contradicted this, [10] or presented evidence that differential ...
Mental rotation is the ability to rotate mental representations of two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects as it is related to the visual representation of such rotation within the human mind. [1] There is a relationship between areas of the brain associated with perception and mental rotation.
The Mental Rotations Test is a test of spatial ability by Steven G. Vandenberg and Allan R. Kuse, first published in 1978. It has been used in hundreds of studies since then. [1] [2] A meta-analysis of studies using this test showed that men performed better than women with no changes seen by birth cohort. [3]
The block design test is also a relatively accurate measure of spatial ability and spatial visualization ability used in daily life. [6] The block design test is considered one of the best measures of spatial ability, although it is subject to certain problems of administration, such as anxiety or over-cautious responding.
Minnesota Paper Form Board Test is said to test “imagery capacity” , [1] “spatial visualization”, [2] “mental visualization skills” [3] “part–whole relationship skills” [4] and “the ability of an individual to visualize and manipulate objects in space”. [5]
