本研究的目的是提供一个更好的理解的作用,形象熟悉,体现认知,和认知策略的性别差异的性能时,旋转块和照片的真实的人体。创建了两个新的心理旋转测试(MRT):一个使用真实的人体模型的照片,这些照片尽可能接近Doyle和Voyer 2013年研究中使用的人类图形MRT中的计算机绘制的图形,另一个使用类似的方块图形。据推测,当与类似的方块图形相比时,真实的人体图形将导致男性和女性之间的准确性提高,准确性的性别差异幅度减小,并且与类似的方块图形相比,遮挡对女性表现的影响减小。Doyle和Voyer在2013年的研究中报告的测试、性别和咬合之间的三向相互作用在本研究中没有重复。然而,女性在真实的人体图形测试中的得分比男性在真实的人体图形测试中的得分提高得更快,而在方块图形测试中的性别差异则更大。这一发现表明,女性在旋转人物形象时的策略转变比男性更大。
The goal of the current study was to provide a better understanding of the role of image familiarity, embodied cognition, and cognitive strategies on sex differences in performance when rotating blocks and photographs of real human bodies. Two new Mental Rotation Tests (MRTs) were created: one using photographs of real human models positioned as closely as possible to computer drawn figures from the human figures MRT used in Doyle and Voyer’s 2013 study, and one using analogous block figures. It was hypothesised that, when compared to the analogous block figures, the real human figures would lead to improved accuracy among both men and women, a reduced magnitude of sex differences in accuracy, and a reduced effect of occlusion on women’s performance when compared to analogous block figures. The three-way interaction between test, sex, and occlusion reported in Doyle and Voyer’s 2013 study was not replicated in the current study. However, women’s scores on the real human figures improved significantly more than men’s scores on the real human figures test compared to gender differences in improvement on the block figures test. This finding points to a greater strategy shift among women than men when rotating human figures.
