5138.155 Investigation of Xiaoyang Villagers' cognition and mental state after the Chongqing’s
gas blowout accident, Lin Yuan, China
Using the self-made questionaire on the Chongqing’s gas blowout accident, we investigated 500
Xiaoyang’s villagers’s cognition and mental state towards the accident from six aspects: physical
symptom and organ’s functions, the functions of daily life, mental symptom and emotion,
cognitive functions, social support and social responsibility. The survey is useful to psychological
help for the victims in the accident.
5138.156 Study of kinesthetic training of the skill of sawing in metal processing, Xin Zhao,
Guicai Xian, Xingchuan Song, Qiang Huang, Xiangdong Li, Tianjin University of Technology
and Education, Tianjin, China
Through a comparative study of the test group and control group, this research finds that
kinesthetic training can accelerate the forming of operational skills of the sawing motion in mental
processing. Based on this, the kinesthetic training mode of operation skill is put forward.
5138.157 Ability-performance relations in endoscopic simulation training, Leif hedman 1 , Pehr

Visual-spatial ability may influence the acquisition of specific technical skills in endoscopic
simulator training. To test this hypothesis, 54 medical students performed two different endoscopic
simulator training tasks: in Procedicus KSA and Procedicus MIST, and completed previously
validated and objective psychometric tests of visual-spatial ability correlated as well as
uncorrelated with general intelligence: MRT and BasIQ, respectively. Hence, ability-performance
correlations across phases of skill acquisition depend on specific surgical training task
characteristics. Our results suggest that the simulator training of surgical tasks, the educational
curriculum and the selection of surgical candidates for complex surgery could be improved
substantially.
5138.158 Perception of partially presented point-light-walker, Ko Nakamura, Hokusei Gakuen
University Junior College, Japan
Perception of partial point-light-walkers with two to four point lights selected from the side view
of non-locomotory walker on a treadmill was compared with those from locomotory walker.
Results showed that the identification of walking was easier for the locomotory walker than for
the non-locomotory walker, and that the dynamic symmetry, which means the alternate and cyclic
movements of two symmetrical parts of the human body, such as both right and left ankles, is
important for the perception of human walking in the partial point-light-walkers.
5138.159 Experiments on binocular stereopsis with an inverting stereoscope, Masao Ohta,
Kanazawa University, Japan
The purpose of these experiments were to prove the hypothesis that when both eyes are turned 180
degrees at the center of the distance between both eyes, the visual fields of both eyes would be
turned over, but the normal stereoscopic vision of reversed image would be obtained. The
inverting stereoscope was designed to make reversed figures by the rotation of two video cameras
and to reflect the figure on each of two liquid crystal screens. The hypothesis was proved and the
