Apparel Spatial Visualization Test and Paper Folding Test

---

Abstract

Workman, Caldwell, and Kallal (1999) developed the Apparel Spatial Visualization Test (ASVT) to measure spatial skills related to apparel design and found it did not correlate with a measure of spatial relations. The ASVT did correlate with the Surface Development Test-a measure of spatial visualization. The purpose of this study was to test the ASVT by (1) examining the effect of two types of spe-cific training (working with commercial sewing patterns; making original flat patterns) and (2) correlating it with the Paper Folding Test (PFT)-a measure of spatial visualization.
