Document Summary

In both mental rotation and mental scanning the farther the imagined. Indication of how images represent spatial layout. Another way to interpret data re-create a normal pattern. Participants know that movement around the world takes time and that moving a longer distance takes more time. Therefore, the participants simply control the timing of their responses in order to re-create this normal pattern. Participants are sensitive to the demand character of the experiment. Cues within an experiment that signal to the participant how they are. Participants could try to be helpful and give the experimenter good data. Participants know that these manipulations should take more time and do their best to simulate the process. The scanning and rotation data are as they are because of how images represent spatial layout. Longer response times are observed with longer scans. Whenever participants are using visual imagery, whether the result is encouraged by the experimenters" instructions or not.
