The structure of cognitive strategies for wayfinding decisions
Psychological Research, 2023 Literature proposes five distinct cognitive strategies for wayfinding decisions at intersections. Our study investigates whether those strategies rely on a generalized decision-making process, on two frame-specific processes—one in an egocentric and the ...
