早期儿童心理旋转的发展及与数学能力的关系

The Development of Early Children's Mental Rotation and the Relationship between Mental Rotation and Mathematical Ability

心理旋转是一种想象自我或客体旋转的空间思维能力,也是一种评定空间思维的标尺.已有文献从早期儿童心理旋转的发展特点,早期儿童心理旋转与数学能力之间的关系以及心理旋转干预对早期儿童数学能力的影响展开实证研究.未来应丰富早期儿童的心理旋转研究;需要更多的实证研究验证已有研究中不一致的结论;确定计算机干预与教师辅助教学相结合是否能更有效地促进儿童心理旋转能力发展;进一步厘清心理旋转与数学能力关系的性质.

Mental rotation was a spatial thinking ability that imagines itself or object rotation, and it was also a measure of spatial intelligence. Studies had analyzed the developmental characteristics and sex differences of early childhood＇s mental rotation, the relationship between the mathematical ability and mental rotation in early childhood, and the influence of mental rotation intervention on the mathematical ability. Future research should enrich early childhood＇s mental rotation; More empirical research needed to further verify the results of previous studies; Determining whether the combination of computer intervention and teacher-assisted teaching could more effectively improve children＇s mental rotation ability; Further clarify the nature of the relationship between the mental rotation and mathematical ability.
