Spatial memory is used when we have to find our way around a town or give someone directions around a building. Spatial ability can be assessed using a test of spatial reasoning. Such a test could involve solving problems concerning shapes or using a pencil to find a route round a maze drawn on paper. Researchers selected a sample of London taxi drivers by asking for volunteers in a magazine read by most taxi drivers in the city. The researchers also selected a sample of people from among volunteers who were students or staff at their university. This second sample, who were not all experienced car drivers, served as a control group. Each taxi driver was matched with a member of the control group on the vari ables of age, educati on, salary and type o f accommodation occupied. Both groups were then given a spatial reasoning te st. The results of this test are shown in the two stem and leaf charts below ( Table I ). A summary of descriptive statistics is given in Table II. The mean for the taxi-dri vers was higher than the mean for the control group. The difference between the two groups of scores was tested and it was found that they were significantly different with p < 0.01. It was also found that there was a moderately strong correlation of 0.78 between each taxi driver’s sp atial reasoning score and the length of
