Acquisition of spatial knowledge through self-directed interaction with a virtual model of a multi-level building: Effects of training and individual differences
作者：
Highlights：
• Interactive controls enabled self-directed spatial learning with a complex virtual model.
• Egocentric (virtual movement) and allocentric (rotation, zoom) perspectives were addressed.
• Apitudes (e.g., perspective taking, spatial strategies) explained up to 30% of the variance.
• Short-term training explained up to 10% of the variance in addition.
• Training strongly diminished the role of aptitudes in spatial learning.
