This problem is similar to, but more severe than, knowledge-transfer problems. In general, it is an inability to effectively visualize math concepts. Students who have this problem may, for example, be unable to judge the relative size among three dissimilar objects. This disorder requires that a student rely almost entirely on rote memorization of verbal or written descriptions of math concepts that most people take for granted. A student with a deficiency in this skill may:
* have difficulty laying out problems in a neat and organized manner
* be unable to describe what a three-dimensional object would look like if the object is rotated and viewed from a different angle
* be unable to comprehend what quantities and mathematical formulas represent in the real world
