Detailed Description+

Measures the dimension of spatial ability – that is the ability to picture objects and if necessary rotate them in one's mind.
Forming a three-dimensional image of objects that are depicted in two dimensions and switching between different views is important is important for workers in many professions (e.g. architects, long-distance drivers, construction workers, air traffic controllers, pilots and surgeons). The test is presented adaptively: this provides optimum assessment of each person’s potential. Since it assesses work-related abilities, A3DW is used in manufacturing & safety assessments.
