visual-spatial reasoning

Visual-spatial reasoning is the ability to understand, interpret, and mentally manipulate visual and spatial information. It involves picturing how objects relate to each other in space, such as recognizing patterns, visualizing how objects fit together, or navigating through an environment. This skill is essential for tasks like reading maps, assembling furniture, or understanding diagrams. It combines perception and mental visualization, enabling a person to think about shapes, sizes, positions, and movements of objects effectively without needing to physically see or interact with them directly.
