This dissertation focused on the generation and evaluation of web-based versions of Vandenbergu0027s Mental Rotation Test. Memory and spatial visualization theory were explored in relation to the addition of a visuo-spatial working memory component. Analysis of the data determined that there was a significant difference between scores on the MRT Computer and MRT Memory test. The addition of a visuo-spatial working memory component did significantiy affect results at the .05 alpha level. Rehu0027ability and discrimination estimates were higher on the MRT Memory version. The computerization of the paper and pencil version on the MRT did not significantiy effect scores but did effect the time required to complete the test. The population utilized in the quasi-experiment consisted of 107 university students fi^om eight institutions in engineering graphics related courses. The subjects completed two researcher developed. Web-based versions of Vandenbergu0027s Mental Rotation Test and the original paper and pencil version of the Mental Rotation Test. One version of the test included a visuo-spatial working memory loading. Significant contributions of this study included developing and evaluating computerized versions of Vandenbergu0027s Mental Rotation Test. Previous versions of Vandenbergu0027s Mental Rotation Test did not take advantage of the ability of the computer to incorporate an interaction factor, such as a visuo-spatial working memory loading, into the test. The addition of an interaction factor results in a more discriminate test which will lend itself well to computerized adaptive testing practices.
