Exploring a world turned upside down: a shift to egocentric navigation [PDF]
Scientific ReportsDisorientation poses significant challenges for astronauts, scuba divers, and jet-fighter pilots, arising from mismatches among visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive cues and unstable frame of reference.

Distinct Neural Dynamics of Spatial Transformations: Egocentric Perspective-Taking and Allocentric Rotation [PDF]
Brain SciencesBackground/Objectives: Egocentric and allocentric spatial transformations are central to spatial cognition, yet it is unknown whether they rely on the same neural mechanisms. The goal of this study was to examine whether egocentric transformations engage

Identifying a distractor produces object-based inhibition in an allocentric reference frame for saccade planning [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWe investigated whether distractor inhibition occurs relative to the target or fixation in a perceptual decision-making task using a purely saccadic response. Previous research has shown that during the process of discriminating a target from distractor,

Allocentric and egocentric spatial representations coexist in rodent medial entorhinal cortex [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSuccessful navigation relies on reciprocal transformations between spatial representations in world-centered (allocentric) and self-centered (egocentric) frames of reference.

NeuroImage, 2021 Humans use different spatial reference frames (allocentric or egocentric) to navigate successfully toward their destination in different spatial scale spaces (environmental or vista). However, it remains unclear how the brain represents different spatial

PLoS ONE, 2020 Despite numerous reports of abnormalities in limb motor controls in spatial orientation in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. We studied the influence of allocentric coordinates on ongoing

Flexible Use of Spatial Frames of Reference for Object–Location Memory in Older Adults
Brain Sciences, 2021 In memory, representations of spatial features are stored in different reference frames; features relative to our position are stored egocentrically and features relative to each other are stored allocentrically.

Different strategies for spatial updating in yaw and pitch path integration
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2013 Research in spatial navigation revealed the existence of discrete strategies defined by the use of distinct reference frames during virtual path integration.

Spatial task context makes short-latency reaches prone to induced Roelofs illusion
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014 The perceptual localization of an object is often more prone to illusions than an immediate visuomotor action towards that object. The induced Roelofs effect (IRE) probes the illusory influence of task-irrelevant visual contextual stimuli on the ...
