Kurzfassung englisch:
This paper focuses on the development of a new spatial ability test in virtual reality
(VR). This test measures the ability to visualize and mentally manipulate three-dimensional objects
directly in 3D space, and should thus have a higher ecological validity than previous spatial ability
tests. Items are viewed through head mounted displays and manipulated by means of a wireless pen
input device. As a dynamic tests consisting of a pretest, a training phase, and a posttest it does not
only measure a person´s current status but also his or her learning potential. Monitoring user
interactions in a VR environment allows to measure test performance in ways not possible with
traditional means. We describe design and development of the test and will present results of a
pre-study with 240 participants conducted in early 2008.
