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
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
Research in spatial navigation revealed the existence of discrete strategies defined by the use of distinct reference frames during virtual path integration.

Allocentric or craniocentric representation of acoustic space: an electrotomography study using mismatch negativity. [PDF]
The world around us appears stable in spite of our constantly moving head, eyes, and body. How this is achieved by our brain is hardly understood and even less so in the auditory domain. Using electroencephalography and the so-called mismatch negativity,

Spatial task context makes short-latency reaches prone to induced Roelofs illusion
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 ...

Parkinson's disease (PD) manifestations can include visual hallucinations and illusions. Recent findings suggest that the coherent integration of bodily information within an egocentric representation could play a crucial role in these phenomena ...

Emergent spatial goals in an integrative model of the insect central complex.
The insect central complex appears to encode and process spatial information through vector manipulation. Here, we draw on recent insights into circuit structure to fuse previous models of sensory-guided navigation, path integration and vector memory ...

Background: Spatial cognition research strives to maximize conditions favoring environment representation. This study examined how initial (egocentric) navigation headings interact with allocentric references in terms of world-based information (such as ...
