Hows your visual spatial skills?

Post Reply New Topic

Yeah I never thought of it that way. I do have some spatial issues even though I usually score high on that part of a test, but like when I'm driving, I can never really tell how far away a vehicle is and it's speed. I sit for a good minute to assess that. It drives my husband nuts (then he yells at me to go and I end up pulling out in front of someone).

I would assume your eye sight would have to play a role in your visual/spatial reasoning since that reasoning is very dependent on your eye sight. I just don't think I would go so far as to consider it a mental dysfunction since the dysfunction isn't mental as much as physical (the eye sight). Like in your case, mentally, you are probably better off than most people because it's been overcompensating for the eye sight problem for so many years.

Mine are good.

Did anyone play the video game, 'Indigo Prophecy'? It's an excellent game. Some action sequences are controlled by color recognition patterns.

I do decent visually, but do have some problems with spatial awareness. The latter has caused problems with driving.

I can visualize hyperbolic space.

It is a totally useless skill since we live in a locally Euclidean space.

My visual-spatial skills are excellent. I'm very good at visualizing things and many have commented that I seem to have "photographic" memory. My big skill is visualizing systems of various kinds in my head. I was shocked when I learned that most people could not rotate mental objects as easily as I could. I loved Geometry.

I'm good at visual-spatial. Think in picture, 3D picture, good for distance, speed, etc.
