Differences between Spatial and Visual Mental Representations
This article investigates the relationship between visual mental representations and spatial mental representations in human visuo-spatial processing. By comparing two common theories of visuo-spatial processing - mental model theory and the theory of mental imagery - we identified two open questions: (1) which representations are modality-specific, and (2) what is the role of the two represent...

Imagery as Internalized Perception. The classic work on imagery has emphasized the similarity of images to percepts and of operations on images to perceptual or physical operations. Elegant experiments have supported this view: smaller imagined features take more time to verify, larger imagined distances take more time to scan, and figures displaced by greater angles take longer to mentally rot...
متن کاملMental representations of spatial language
Previous studies have provided evidence of multi-level mental representations of language-conveyed spatial (scenic) information. However, the available evidence is largely inconclusive with regard to the structure of these mental representations. A laboratory experiment assesses computer-assisted problem-solving performance abilities when language-conveyed representations of spatial information...
متن کاملVisual and Spatial Representations in Relational Reasoning
Psychologists have argued that visual imagery plays a vital role in human reasoning. If so, then reasoning with materials that are easy to visualize should be better than reasoning with materials that are hard to visualize. The literature, however, reports inconsistent results. Our starting point was that the inconsistencies arise from confounding imageability with the spatial nature of the mat...
