A Problem in Your Textbook Asks You to Look at Five

question 381

Multiple Choice

A problem in your textbook asks you to look at five representations of the number 3 displayed at different orientations and then identify which of the five are backward. The point of the demonstration is that:

• A) some people are better than others at mental rotation skills, which is why such problems are often used in intelligence or IQ tests.
• B) rotating a mental image is similar to rotating an actual physical object, and just as it takes time to rotate a physical object, it takes time to rotate a mental image.
• C) rotating a mental image is not the same as rotating an actual physical object; it takes much longer to rotate a mental image than it does to rotate the same physical object.
• D) physically manipulating an actual object takes time, but manipulating a mental image happens almost instantaneously.
