Duke University Talent Identification Program researcher Jonathan Wai has an interesting column in which he questions why our educational system doesn't value spatial reasoning as much as it values ...

Most tests and school curricula are primarily suited to the types of students who excel in mathematics and verbal reasoning. The missing factor in testing and education policy is the measurement, ...

It is well-established that, on average, men outperform women on a spatial reasoning task known as mental rotation -- imagining multi-dimensional objects from different points of view. Men are not, ...

For all the emphasis placed on science, technology, engineering and math instruction, not much attention is given to a skill set that’s closely related with success in STEM: spatial skills. Sheryl ...

The term 'spatial reasoning' might sound lofty, but it's actually a skill we use close to home in our daily lives. It's used when reading a map, parking a car, assembling flat-pack furniture, or ...

Vision-language models (VLMs) are advanced computational techniques designed to process both images and written texts, making predictions accordingly. Among other things, these models could be used to ...

There’s an enduring stereotype that women tend to be worse than men when it comes to spatial reasoning. Mentally rotating an object, coming up with strategies to maneuver a big piece of furniture ...
