Impairment of human spatial orientation in the horizontal, but not the vertical plane, due to aging, cognitive decline, or chronic peripheral vestibular loss [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging NeuroscienceIntroductionHumans and other vertebrates exhibit anisotropic orientation and navigation skills, with better performances in the horizontal compared to the vertical plane. While horizontal navigation accuracy decreases with higher age, less is known about

Individual Differences in Spatial Orientation Modulate Perspective Taking in Listeners [PDF]
Journal of Cognition, 2023 Previous research suggests that individuals exhibit consistent tendencies towards taking their own (an egocentric) or their partner’s (an othercentric) spatial perspective.

Event-Driven Maximum Correntropy Filter Based on Cauchy Kernel for Spatial Orientation Using Gyros/Star Sensor Integration [PDF]
SensorsGyros/star sensor integration provides a potential method to obtain high-accuracy spatial orientation for turntable structures. However, it is subjected to the problem of accuracy loss when the measurement noises become non-Gaussian due to the complex ...

Vibrotactile feedback as a countermeasure for spatial disorientation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Spaceflight can make astronauts susceptible to spatial disorientation which is one of the leading causes of fatal aircraft accidents. In our experiment, blindfolded participants used a joystick to balance themselves while inside a multi-axis rotation ...

Crash Prediction Using Deep Learning in a Disorienting Spaceflight Analog Balancing Task
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Were astronauts forced to land on the surface of Mars using manual control of their vehicle, they would not have familiar gravitational cues because Mars’ gravity is only 0.38 g.

The Scientific Contributions of Bernard Cohen (1929–2019)
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Throughout Bernard Cohen's active career at Mount Sinai that lasted over a half century, he was involved in research on vestibular control of the oculomotor, body postural, and autonomic systems in animals and humans, contributing to our understanding of

Spatial Orientation in Persian Language [PDF]
̒Ilm-i Zabān, 2019 One of the most important issues in cognitive linguistics is Spatial Orientation. Languages use sources such as human body (body-part), landmarks, dynamic concept (typically motion verbs like come, go, etc.) and cardinal direction to conceptualize ...
