Through Doorways and Down Corridors: Investigating Asymmetries During Computer Maze Navigation

Journal of Cognition, 2020
Pseudoneglect causes neurologically intact individuals to bias their attention to the left in near space, and to the right in far space. These attentional asymmetries impact both ambulatory and non-ambulatory activities, causing individuals to deviate ...

Visuo-spatial cognition in Williams syndrome: Reviewing and accounting for the strengths and weaknesses in performance [PDF]

, 2003
Individuals with Williams syndrome typically show relatively poor visuo-spatial abilities in comparison to stronger verbal skills. However, individuals' level of performance is not consistent across all visuo-spatial tasks.

Historical Evolution of Spatial Abilities

Behavioural Neurology, 1993
Historical evolution and cross-cultural differences in spatial abilities are analyzed. Spatial abilities have been found to be significantly associated with the complexity of geographical conditions and survival demands.

Psychology of spatial cognition [PDF]

WIREs Cognitive Science, 2012
AbstractIn this overview, focusing on memory and higher cognitive processes, we cover some of the most relevant results that emerged from research on spatial cognition in animals and in humans in the last 3 decades. In particular, we discuss how representations of distance and direction are used to localize oneself with respect to the external world ...

Hyperspectral Image Superresolution Using Global Gradient Sparse and Nonlocal Low-Rank Tensor Decomposition With Hyper-Laplacian Prior

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
This article presents a novel global gradient sparse and nonlocal low-rank tensor decomposition model with a hyper-Laplacian prior for hyperspectral image (HSI) superresolution to produce a high-resolution HSI (HR-HSI) by fusing a low-resolution HSI (LR ...

‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...
