The necessity of motoric engagement in enhancing route memory

British Journal of Psychology, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 1164-1188, November 2025.
Abstract The relative contribution of decision‐making and motor engagement at encoding, on route memory, was examined using virtual reality (VR). During encoding, participants explored 12 virtual environments for 40 s each. Navigation strategy during encoding was manipulated within‐subjects.
