Snowden, Ariel W.; Warren, Christopher M.; Goodridge, Wade H.; Fang, Ning – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2021
The current study examined the neural correlates of spatial rotation in eight engineering undergraduates. Mastering engineering graphics requires students to mentally visualize in 3D and mentally rotate parts when developing 2D drawings. Students' spatial rotation skills play a significant role in learning and mastering engineering graphics.…

Yue, Jianping – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2007
Spatial visualization is a fundamental skill in technical graphics and engineering designs. From conventional multiview drawing to modern solid modeling using computer-aided design, visualization skills have always been essential for representing three-dimensional objects and assemblies. Researchers have developed various types of tests to measure…

Kinsey, Brad; Towle, Erick; Hwang, Grace; O'Brien, Edward J.; Bauer, Christopher F.; Onyancha, Richard M. – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 2007
In this paper, results from a subset of the Purdue Spatial Visualization Test and a self-efficacy test developed by the authors are presented to determine whether certain object shapes, orientations, and types of rotations in standard spatial ability tests cause more difficulty than others and whether a solid object, which includes shading to…
