Differential developmental trajectories for egocentric, environmental and intrinsic frames of reference in spatial memory

Cognition, 2006
We studied the development of spatial frames of reference in children aged 3-6 years, who retrieved hidden toys from an array of identical containers bordered by landmarks under four conditions. By moving the child and/or the array between presentation and test, we varied the consistency of the hidden toy with (i) the body, and (ii) the testing room ...

A Multiple Resource Examination of Time Sharing Performance for Egocentric and Allocentric Frames of Reference

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2022
Egocentric and allocentric frames of reference (FoR) can both be used in navigation aids, but each has benefits and drawbacks. Incorporating both FoR could be beneficial for offsetting the drawbacks of each viewpoint, but research on the timesharing ability of these FoR is lacking.

Must egocentric and environmental frames of reference be aligned to produce spatial S compatibility effects?

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1984
Four experiments were conducted to determine the effects of misaligning egocentric and environmental frames of reference on spatial S-R compatibility effects. In Experiments 1 and 3, subjects looked at two lights that were aligned horizontally, one each on either side of the body midline. They held their head upright or tilted 90 degrees to the left or

Human EEG Correlates of Spatial Navigation within Egocentric and Allocentric Reference Frames

2010
We investigated the impact of path complexity on brain dynamics of subjects who preferentially use an egocentric (Turners) or an allocentric (Nonturners) reference frame during spatial navigation. Participants indicated a return bearing direction ('point-to-origin') following visual presentation of virtual tunnel passages, varying with respect to the ...

The relationship between allocentric and egocentric frames of reference and categorical and coordinate spatial information processing

Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2011
We report two experiments on the relationship between allocentric/egocentric frames of reference and categorical/coordinate spatial relations. Jager and Postma (2003) suggest two theoretical possibilities about their relationship: categorical judgements are better when combined with an allocentric reference frame and coordinate judgements with an ...

The EEG Correlates of the Allocentric and the Egocentric Spatial Reference Frames Processing

2009
In the paper we describe current results of our ongoing research, concerning the navigation in the virtual tunnel task and its EEG correlates. We searched for the features in the EEG signal to discriminate the employment of the allocentric and the egocentric reference frames.

Neural correlates of spatial navigation within egocentric and allocentric frames of reference

2023
Human activity takes place in space and people need a mental representation of what is “actual” in the physical world to effectively navigate it. The cognitive map is the term we use to describe these representations. Mentally comparing the distances between a reference and a target location is a process that requires the recall of that information off

Spatial memory: the role of egocentric and allocentric frames of reference

2011
A fundamental requirement of everyday life is that of encoding and remembering successfully the locations of objects, landmarks or buildings in space. This function is achieved by structuring spatial information in systems of coordinates. There are many ways to classify spatial reference systems (Paillard, 1991), but a useful one, for the purposes of ...
