Age-related effects on spatial memory across viewpoint changes relative to different reference frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Remembering object positions across different views is a fundamental competence for acting and moving appropriately in a large-scale space. Behavioural and neurological changes in elderly subjects suggest that the spatial representations of the ...

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.

Different strategies for spatial updating in yaw and pitch path integration

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Flexible Use of Spatial Frames of Reference for Object–Location Memory in Older Adults

open access: yesBrain 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.

Human Brain Dynamics Accompanying Use of Egocentric and Allocentric Reference Frames during Navigation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2010
Abstract Maintaining spatial orientation while travelling requires integrating spatial information encountered from an egocentric viewpoint with accumulated information represented within egocentric and/or allocentric reference frames.

Challenges for identifying the neural mechanisms that support spatial navigation: the impact of spatial scale. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Spatial navigation is a fascinating behavior that is essential for our everyday lives. It involves nearly all sensory systems, it requires numerous parallel computations, and it engages multiple memory systems.

An investigation of visual cues used to create and support frames of reference and visual search tasks in desktop virtual environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Visual depth cues are combined to produce the essential depth and dimensionality of Desktop Virtual Environments (DVEs). This study discusses DVEs in terms of the visual depth cues that create and support perception of frames of references and ...

Path Integration Changes as a Cognitive Marker for Vascular Cognitive Impairment?—A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Path integration spatial navigation processes are emerging as promising cognitive markers for prodromal and clinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, such path integration changes have been less explored in Vascular Cognitive Impairment (VCI), despite ...

Does Proprioception Influence Human Spatial Cognition? A Study on Individuals With Massive Deafferentation

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
When navigating in a spatial environment or when hearing its description, we can develop a mental model which may be represented in the central nervous system in different coordinate systems such as an egocentric or allocentric reference frame.

The structure of frontoparallel haptic space is task dependent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In three experiments, we investigated the structure of frontoparallel haptic space. In the first experiment, we asked blindfolded participants to rotate a matching bar so that it felt parallel to the reference bar, the bars could be at various positions ...
