Popis: | On each trial Ss viewed one of the patterns of six connected squares that result when the faces of a cube are unfolded onto a flat surface. The Ss tried, as rapidly as possible, to decide whether two arrows, each marked on an edge of a (different) square, would or would not meet if the squares were folded back up into the cube. The time required to make such decisions increased linearly (from 2 to about 15 sec) with the sum of the number of squares that would be involved in each fold, if those folds were actually performed physically. |
