Thurstone (1963); despite minor name differences in original articles, PMA “Spatial” (Baker & Ehrhardt, 1974) and “Space” (Berenbaum et al., 2012) are presumed or confirmed to be the PMA-Spatial Relations test.

Ages for the full sample started at 11 years, but the relevant spatial means and SDs were given only for participants aged 16 and older.
Participants aged 11.5 to 21 years were recruited and three females above 21 years also volunteered, with ages available for two of the three (22 and 30 years).
