Decreased utilization of allocentric coordinates during reaching movement in individuals with autism spectrum disorder

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

Learning a Path from Real Navigation: The Advantage of Initial View, Cardinal North and Visuo-Spatial Ability

Brain Sciences, 2020
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 ...

Sharing Different Reference Frames: How Stimulus Setup and Task Setup Shape Egocentric and Allocentric Simon Effects

Frontiers in Psychology, 2018
Different reference frames are used in daily life in order to structure the environment. The two-choice Simon task setting has been used to investigate how task-irrelevant spatial information influences human cognitive control.

Contribution of cognitive and bodily navigation cues to egocentric and allocentric spatial memory in hallucinations due to Parkinson's disease: A case report

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
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 ...

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

Frontiers 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.

Children’s use of egocentric reference frames in spatial language is related to their numerical magnitude understanding

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
Numerical magnitude information is assumed to be spatially represented in the form of a mental number line defined with respect to a body-centred, egocentric frame of reference.

The egocentric nature of action-sound associations

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
Actions that produce sounds infuse our daily lives. Some of these sounds are a natural consequence of physical interactions (such as a clang resulting from dropping a pan), but others are artificially designed (such as a beep resulting from a keypress ...

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.

Lateral entorhinal cortex lesions impair both egocentric and allocentric object–place associations

Brain and Neuroscience Advances, 2020
During navigation, landmark processing is critical either for generating an allocentric-based cognitive map or in facilitating egocentric-based strategies.
