Abstract
The study examined the influence of individual feedback on the performance in a mental-rotation test. Males showed better performances in reaction time but not in accuracy. Feedback influenced subjects’ reaction time and their rotational speed. Possible implications for the role of feedback in tests and at school will be discussed.
