Effects of mental rotation training on children’s spatial and mathematics performance: A randomized controlled study (2015, background): “Defined as the ability to rotate mental representations of 2D and 3D objects in one’s mind, mental rotation skills have been linked to performance across a wide variety of mathematical tasks, including geometry [2,13], algebra [37], mental arithmetic [24,25] word problems [18], and advanced mathemat”
Women's underrepresentation in science: sociocultural and biological considerations. (2009, background): “…and mathematical ability, noting that it is most evident among older children when the mathematics content is less focused on numerical learning and more focused on geometry and problem solving (e.g., Kersh, Casey, & Young, in press; see also Battista, 1990; Delgado & Prieto, 2004; Friedman, 1995).”
The role of individual and contextual factors in the development of maths skills (2009, background): “At the student level, we anticipated that preliminary knowledge (e.g., Burchinal et al., 2002; Lerkkanen et al., 2005), verbal reasoning (e.g., Delgado & Prieto, 2004; Fuchs et al., 2006; Lerkkanen et al., 2005), and mastery orientations would be positively associated with maths achievement, with…”
Spatial Training Improves Children's Mathematics Ability (2014, unknown): “…better on spatial tasks also perform better on tests of mathematical ability (Burnett, Lane, & Dratt, 1979; M. B. Casey, Nuttall, & Pezaris, 2001; Delgado & Prieto, 2004; Geary, Hoard, Byrd-Craven, Nugent, & Numtee, 2007; Holmes, Adams, & Hamilton, 2008; Kyttälä, Aunio, Lehto, Van Luit, &…”
Video Games and Spatial Cognition (2010, background): “…with spatial ability (Wai, Lubinski, & Benbow, 2009), and spatial skills are associated with performance in mathematics and science courses (Delgado & Prieto, 2004) and standardized tests (Casey, Nuttall, Pezaris, & Benbow, 1995), as well as the choice of mathematics and science courses…”
Playing an Action Video Game Reduces Gender Differences in Spatial Cognition (2007, background): “Spatial abilities—including mental rotation ability—have been associated with success in mathematics and science courses (Delgado & Prieto, 2004), performance on standardized tests (e.g., the SAT; Casey, Nuttall, Pezaris, & Benbow, 1995), and the choice of mathematics and science as majors in…”
Block Talk: Spatial Language During Block Play (2011, background): “…Baltimore, MD 21218; e-mail: ferrara@cogsci.jhu.edu. spatial visualization are related to geometric problem solving in high school (Battista, 1990; Delgado & Prieto, 2004; Kersh, Casey, & Mercer Young, 2008), to mathematics achievement (Fennema & Tarte, 1985; Guay & McDaniel, 1977; Hegarty &…”
Gender-Role Differences in Spatial Ability: A Meta-Analytic Review (2013, background): “…an important, but previously underestimated contributor to these individual differences in spatial ability, which in turn is a key foundation for higher-level quantitative skills such as mathematics (Casey et al. 1997; Delgado and Prieto 2004) and STEM related fields (Halpern 2007; Newcombe 2007).”
