Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2011 Neuropsychological evidence suggests that different brain areas may be involved in movements that are directed at visual targets (e.g. pointing or reaching), and movements that are based on allocentric visual information (e.g. drawing or copying).

A Principle for Learning Egocentric-Allocentric Transformation [PDF]
Neural Computation, 2008 Numerous single-unit recording studies have found mammalian hippocampal neurons that fire selectively for the animal's location in space, independent of its orientation. The population of such neurons, commonly known as place cells, is thought to maintain an allocentric, or orientation-independent, internal representation of the animal's location in ...

Are the deficits in navigational abilities present in the Williams syndrome related to deficits in the backward inhibition? [PDF]
, 2015 Williams syndrome (WS) is associated with a distinct profile of relatively proficient skills within the verbal domain compared to the severe impairment of visuo-spatial processing. Abnormalities in executive functions and deficits in planning ability and

Altered hippocampal function in major depression despite intact structure and resting perfusion [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Hippocampal volume reductions in major depression have been frequently reported. However, evidence for functional abnormalities in the same region in depression has been less clear.

Brain and Behavior, 2020 Introduction Spatial orientation relies mainly on two frameworks. The egocentric depends on our own position and point of view. The allocentric relies on remembering, recalling, and recognizing environmental stimuli called landmarks.

Egocentric and allocentric localization during induced motion [PDF]
Experimental Brain Research, 2008 This research examined motor measures of the apparent egocentric location and perceptual measures of the apparent allocentric location of a target that was being seen to undergo induced motion (IM). In Experiments 1 and 3, subjects fixated a stationary dot (IM target) while a rectangular surround stimulus (inducing stimulus) oscillated horizontally ...
