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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Psychology of spatial cognition [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs 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 ...

Where is the “where” in the brain? A meta‐analysis of neuroimaging studies on spatial cognition

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, 2019
Spatial representations are processed in the service of several different cognitive functions. The present study capitalizes on the Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE) method of meta‐analysis to identify: (a) the shared neural activations among ...

It wasn't me! Motor activation from irrelevant spatial information in the absence of a response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Embodied cognition postulates that perceptual and motor processes serve higher-order cognitive faculties like language. A major challenge for embodied cognition concerns the grounding of abstract concepts. Here we zoom in on abstract spatial concepts and

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Osteosarcoma: Local Control Outcomes With Dosimetric Analysis

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Osteosarcoma is a radioresistant tumor that may benefit from stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locoregional control in metastatic/recurrent disease. We report institutional practice patterns, outcomes, toxicity, and failures in osteosarcoma patients treated with SBRT.
