Visual-spatial abilities enhancement and spatial anatomy learning: A systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Student's visual-spatial abilities appear to be an important predictor of learning time, performance and knowledge in anatomy. The objective of this systematic review was to assess the relationship between spatial abilities enhancement and spatial learning of anatomy.

Materials and methods

A systematic literature search of databases (MEDLINE, Embase, ERIC, Scopus and Web of Science) was undertaken using relevant keywords. The search included citations published from inception to December 31st, 2024. The transferability of spatial abilities enhancement to spatial learning of anatomy was assessed using a 2 × 2 classification of spatial skills, in which each visual-spatial task was coded in terms of both intrinsic-extrinsic and static-dynamic dimensions.
