Effects of spatial training on mathematics in first and sixth grade children. (2020, background): “In these studies, training has focused primarily on mental rotation and spatial visualization, with the amount of training varying from one 40-min session (Cheng & Mix, 2014) to several hours spread over 32 weeks (Hawes et al., 2017).”
Improving Methodological Standards in Behavioral Interventions for Cognitive Enhancement (2019, background): “These include, for instance, many types of interventions deployed in educational contexts (Hawes et al. 2017; Mayer 2014).”
The Influence of Spatial Visualization Training on Students’ Spatial Reasoning and Mathematics Performance (2019, background): “Hawes et al. (2017) developed a spatial intervention program (for 4–7 year olds) for the first three years of formal schooling.”
Girls’ Spatial Skills and Arithmetic Strategies in First Grade as Predictors of Fifth-Grade Analytical Math Reasoning (2017, background): “Research has shown that spatial skills can be effectively taught (Casey, Andrews, et al., 2008; Casey, Ekurt, et al., 2008; Hawes et al., 2017; Uttall et al., 2013).”
