  2. Educational video game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Educational_video_game

    Research shows that children who play educational video games have improved visual-spatial skills. For instance, a simple game session can help learners visualize science topics in a way that helps them learn better. Children who play educational video games have sharpened visual attention skills and improved capacity to visualize 3D objects ...

  3. Spatial ability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_ability

    Spatial ability or visuo-spatial ability is the capacity to understand, reason, and remember the visual and spatial relations among objects or space. [ 1 ] Visual-spatial abilities are used for everyday use from navigation, understanding or fixing equipment, understanding or estimating distance and measurement, and performing on a job.

  4. Spatial visualization ability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_visualization_ability

    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.

  5. Spatial intelligence (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_intelligence...

    Spatial intelligence is an area in the theory of multiple intelligences that deals with spatial judgment and the ability to visualize with the mind's eye. It is defined by Howard Gardner as a human computational capacity that provides the ability or mental skill to solve spatial problems of navigation, visualization of objects from different angles and space, faces or scenes recognition, or to ...

  6. Topographical disorientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographical_disorientation

    Topographical disorientation is the inability to orient oneself in one's surroundings, sometimes as a result of focal brain damage. [1] This disability may result from the inability to make use of selective spatial information (e.g., environmental landmarks) or to orient by means of specific cognitive strategies such as the ability to form a mental representation of the environment, also known ...

  7. 2.5D - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D

    Common in video games, 2.5D projections have also been useful in geographic visualization (GVIS) to help understand visual-cognitive spatial representations or 3D visualization. [ 1 ] The terms three-quarter perspective and three-quarter view trace their origins to the three-quarter profile in portraiture and facial recognition , which depicts ...

  8. Visuospatial function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visuospatial_function

    In cognitive psychology, visuospatial function refers to cognitive processes necessary to "identify, integrate, and analyze space and visual form, details, structure and spatial relations" in more than one dimension. [1] Visuospatial skills are needed for movement, depth and distance perception, and spatial navigation. [1]

  9. Block design test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_design_test

    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.
