Exploring and Enhancing Spatial Thinking (2013, background): “) Spatial skills may also play a role in determining whether, and how well, STEM learners and practitioners use external spatial representations such as graphs, maps, or computer molecular models (Hegarty, 2010).”
Can spatial training improve long-term outcomes for gifted STEM undergraduates? (2013, background): “Recent theoretical frameworks have critiqued this narrow within-object definition and expanded it by including the role of between-object skills (Newcombe & Shipley, in press), external visualizations (Hegarty, 2010a) and domain specificity (NRC, 2006).”
Inferring cross sections of 3D objects: A new spatial thinking test (2012, background): “This unexpected interaction between cutting plane orientation and geometric complexity led us to suggest that some participants used analytic strategies, such as task decomposition and feature matching (cf Schultz, 1991; Hegarty, 2010) to solve some of the items, rather than relying exclusively on i”
