The aim of this study was to investigate the spatial abilities of the final year students of vocational school in terms of program and gender. “The Purdue Visualization of Rotations (ROT) test” was used as a data collection tool in the study. The sample of the study consisted of 102 final year students study-ing in different programs of a state vocational school. The research was carried out as a survey design which is one of the quantitative research designs. The independent samples t-test and one-way ANOVA analysis were used to analyse the data. According to the results of the analyses, it was revealed that students' spatial ability test scores were not sufficient and the spatial ability scores of students in technical programs were significantly higher than the scores of students in the social programs. In addition, when the technical and social programs were evaluated independently within themselves, there was no significant difference in spatial ability scores in terms of gen-der. |
