Spatial
Rotation, scale, layouts.
What we measure
Mental rotation. Turning shapes in mind, matching orientations.
2D↔3D mapping. Reading diagrams, nets, and projections.
Scale & proportion. Relative sizes, distances, and alignment.
Spatial working memory. Keeping arrangements and routes in mind.
Why it matters
Spatial skill supports design, engineering, architecture, UI layout, navigation, sports positioning, and any task involving structures.
How we test it
MCQ rotation/matching and net unfolding. SJT layout or route choices under constraints. SR covers spatial habits. OPEN can ask you to describe an arrangement precisely. Adaptive; reports include score, tier, SE, and N.
Tips to improve
- Do short rotation puzzles and tangrams.
- Sketch quick diagrams before solving.
- Read floorplans/maps; retrace routes from memory.
- Build/assemble (LEGO/origami) to practice 3D→2D mapping.
- Use coordinates/axes to describe positions.
