In addition, correlation analysis was used to search correlations between the spatial
visualization success and visual/spatial intelligence capabilities of sixth grade
students. According to the results of the study, there were significant differences
among students’ spatial visualization success with respect to students’ gender,
mathematics achievement, interest in geometry and visual/spatial intelligence
levels. In addition, there was positive, significant but low correlation between the
