    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Anatomy
    • Cognitive Psychology

    Background:

    • Anatomy is a foundational medical science.
    • Student performance in anatomy assessments varies.
    • Cognitive factors may influence learning outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between cognitive abilities and anatomy assessment performance in medical students.
    • To identify potential learning barriers in anatomy.

    Main Methods:

    • Medical students' performance in spot, viva, and essay anatomy tests was compared.
    • Performance was correlated with results from visual memory and auditory recall tests.

    Main Results:

    • A correlation was observed between anatomy assessment scores and visual memory test results.
