How Does Digital Technology Support Visuospatial Cognition? – A Meta-Analysis Study

• In Event: D&D- How Does Digital Technology Support Visuospatial Cognition? – A Meta-Analysis Study

Short Description

This meta-analysis systematically reviewed the use of digital technologies in scaffolding visuospatial cognition. We conclude that technology-assisted visuospatial training is more effective than non-technology training in supporting visuospatial cognition. We attempted to explore the reasons why technologies can support visuospatial cognition through the lens of technology affordances. However, we did not identify significant technology affordances that could enhance the efficacy of technology-assisted training. Method-wise, we applied novel meta-analysis methods, and the estimation results are conservative.
