New research highlights internal models for spatial orientation and navigation. Cognitive and emotional factors, along with individual and gender differences, are crucial for understanding spatial perception and related neural disorders.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Human Navigation

Background:

  • Spatial orientation mechanisms are being revised by psychophysical and brain imaging studies.
  • Internal models predicting trajectories are key for locomotion control.
  • Cognitive and emotional factors are increasingly recognized in spatial orientation research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the revised concepts of spatial orientation mechanisms.
  • To investigate the role of internal models in navigation and locomotion.
  • To understand the influence of cognitive factors, individual, and gender differences on spatial orientation.

Main Methods:

  • Psychophysical studies on normal subjects.
  • Brain imaging studies.
