The Effectiveness of Home-Based Training Software Designed to Influence Strategic Navigation Preferences in Healthy Subjects

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020
One approach to the rehabilitation of navigation impairments is to train the use of compensatory egocentric or allocentric navigation strategies.

Improvement of allocentric spatial memory resolution in children from 2 to 4 years of age [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Allocentric spatial memory, the memory for locations coded in relation to objects comprising our environment, is a fundamental component of episodic memory and is dependent on the integrity of the hippocampal formation in adulthood.

Are the deficits in navigational abilities present in the Williams syndrome related to deficits in the backward inhibition? [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Spatial memory deficit across aging: current insights of the role of 5-HT7 receptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
Elderly persons often face biological, psychological or social changes over time that may cause discomfort or morbidity. While some cognitive domains remain stable over time, others undergo a decline.

Impaired Spatial Reorientation in the 3xTg-AD Mouse Model of Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In early Alzheimer's disease (AD) spatial navigation is impaired; however, the precise cause of this impairment is unclear. Recent evidence suggests that getting lost is one of the first impairments to emerge in AD.

Haptic space processing--Allocentric and egocentric reference frames. [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Experimental Psychology / Revue canadienne de psychologie expérimentale, 2007
In this paper a haptic matching, task is used to analyze haptic spatial processing. In various conditions, blindfolded participants were asked to make a test bar parallel to a reference bar. This always resulted in large but systematic deviations. It will be shown that the results can be described with a model in which an egocentric reference frame ...

Grid cells: the missing link in understanding Parkinson’s disease?

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
The mechanisms underlying Parkinson’s disease (PD) are complex and not fully understood, and the box-and-arrow model among other current models present significant challenges. This paper explores the potential role of the allocentric brain and especially

What is the role of spatial processing in the decline of episodic memory in Alzheimer's disease? The "mental frame syncing" hypothesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
The current theories on episodic memory suggest a crucial role of spatial processing for an effective retrieval. When prompted by a retrieval cue, the full past scene can be retrieved through the process of pattern completion.

Egocentric Spatial Representation in Action and Perception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Neuropsychological findings used to motivate the “two visual systems” hypothesis have been taken to endanger a pair of widely accepted claims about spatial representation in visual experience.

Th.o.m.a.s.: An exploratory assessment of Theory of Mind in schizophrenic subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A large body of literature agrees that persons with schizophrenia suffer from a Theory of Mind (ToM) deficit. However, most empirical studies have focused on third-person, egocentric ToM, underestimating other facets of this complex cognitive skill.
