  text: "BACKGROUND: Previous studies suggest better visual-spatial processing when
    participants are tested in postures in which dynamic stability is challenged.
    The question arises if this is also true for the performance in mental body-rotation
    tasks (MBRT).\r\nAIM: Taking the embodied cognition approach into account, the
    first aim of the present study was to examine the potential influence of different
    demands on dynamic stability for two postures (parallel stand vs. tandem stand)
    on solving two versions of the MBRT, inducing either an object-based or an egocentric
    perspective transformation strategy. The second aim was to investigate if these
    different demands on dynamic stability are reflected in postural sway parameters.\r\nMETHOD:
    Thirty participants (18 females and 12 males) were tested in the two MBRTs and
    in a control condition. All tasks were performed while standing on a balance beam
    in tandem stand and in a feet parallel position on a force plate.\r\nRESULTS:
    The results for response time and response error revealed effects of rotation
    angle and task, but no effect of posture. The analyzed Center of Pressure (CoP)
    data revealed a reduction of body sway during the MBRT for egocentric perspective
    transformations.\r\nCONCLUSION: The results indicate that participants performed
    better for egocentric than for object-based transformations and that the egocentric
    transformation leads to more postural stability than the object-based."

  text: "BACKGROUND: A detail of previous studies on mental rotation, which has not
    received any attention so far, relates to the testing situation of the participants.
    In nearly every study, participants were tested in a sitting posture (and not

    participants may not be able to fully exploit these processes when performing
    mental rotation tasks in a sitting posture.&#x0D;\r\nAIM: Therefore, the aim of

    Sixteen participants (6 females) were tested in two mental body-rotation tasks
    (MBRT), requiring either an object-based spatial transformation (based on a same-different
    judgment) or an egocentric transformation (based on a left-right judgment) in
    a sitting and in a standing posture. Reaction times and response errors were analysed
    in two three-way ANOVAs, with the factors orientation, task, and posture.&#x0D;\r\nRESULTS:
    Results revealed an effect of orientation and task, indicating that participants
