Measuring Spatial Perspective Taking: Analysis of Four Measures Using Item Response Theory

Maria Brucato et al.

Summary: This study examined the psychometric properties of four spatial perspective taking (PT) tests and investigated the relation of PT scores to general intelligence, working memory, and mental rotation (MR). All tasks showed good construct validity, with PPTT demonstrating the highest measurement precision across a wide range of PT ability. PTT-A and PPTT had relatively higher divergent validity from MR compared to SOT.

The role of a graphical interpretation factor in the assessment of Spatial Visualization: A critical analysis

Kristin A. Bartlett et al.

Summary: Common tests of spatial skills rely on the ability to understand two-dimensional graphical depictions of three-dimensional objects, rather than simply testing one's ability to mentally manipulate shapes. Studies have shown that improving the clarity or realism of the stimuli can enhance performance on spatial skills tests. The graphical interpretation factor may reduce the validity of spatial skills assessments and introduce bias towards individuals with specific engineering graphics experience or problem-solving strategies.

Gender Differences in Spatial Ability: a Critical Review

Kristin A. Bartlett et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the importance of spatial ability in STEM fields and mental rotation as a subcategory of spatial ability, which is widely accepted as having the largest gender difference in favor of men. The authors argue that recent literature suggests that the mental rotation test is not a valid measure of mental rotation ability. They also discuss how gender and spatial ability have been co-constructed, and past research has portrayed spatial ability as necessary only in masculinized STEM fields. The authors argue that instruments like the mental rotation test cannot validly assess between-group differences, and ideas about biological or evolutionary causes of sex differences in spatial ability lack empirical evidence.

Incremental Model Fit Assessment in the Case of Categorical Data: Tucker-Lewis Index for Item Response Theory Modeling

Li Cai et al.

Summary: The Tucker-Lewis index (TLI) and non-normed fit index (NNFI) are popular incremental fit indices used in linear mean and covariance structure modeling, particularly in exploratory factor analysis. This paper develops and examines a similar index for categorical item level data modeled with item response theory (IRT), called the Tucker-Lewis index for IRT (TLIRT). The TLIRT compares the fit of a model under consideration with a spectrum of worst to best possible fit scenarios, providing additional insights about model fit.
