Standardized norm data for three self-report scales on egocentric and allocentric environmental spatial strategies
نویسندگان
چکیده
Standardized norm data for three scales of a 19-item self-report measure on environmental spatial strategies are provided. This self-report measure comprises egocentric spatial strategies, an allocentric mental map strategy and knowledge of cardinal directions as three separate scales, "Validation of a 3-factor structure of spatial strategies and relations to possession and usage of navigational aids" (Münzer et al., 2016) [3]. The data are based on a large sample (N>4000) representative for the population in Germany. Standardized norm data for men and women in different age groups are provided through percentile ranks and T-values.

Differential hippocampal and retrosplenial involvement in egocentric-updating, rotation, and allocentric processing during online spatial encoding: an fMRI study
The way new spatial information is encoded seems to be crucial in disentangling the role of decisive regions within the spatial memory network (i.e., hippocampus, parahippocampal, parietal, retrosplenial,…). Several data sources converge to suggest that the hippocampus is not always involved or indeed necessary for allocentric processing. Hippocampal involvement in spatial coding could reflect ...
متن کاملDisentangling neural processes of egocentric and allocentric mental spatial transformations using whole-body photos of self and other
Mental imagery of one's body moving through space is important for imagining changing visuospatial perspectives, as well as for determining how we might appear to other people. Previous neuroimaging research has implicated the temporoparietal junction (TPJ) in this process. It is unclear, however, how neural activity in the TPJ relates to the rotation perspectives from which mental spatial tran...
متن کاملMissing the egocentric spatial reference: a blank on the map
Egocentric (self-centered) and allocentric (viewpoint independent) representations of space are essential for spatial navigation and wayfinding. Deficits in spatial memory come with age-related cognitive decline, are marked in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), and are associated with cognitive deficits in autism. In most of these disorders, a change in the brain area...
متن کاملThe starmaze: a new paradigm to characterize multiple spatial navigation strategies
Spatial orientation disorders constitute a major problem in aged subjects. Among the different cognitive strategies used for spatial navigation, the most complex ones seem to be primarily deteriorated during ageing. Being able to dissociate the different cognitive strategies might help us in the early detection of age-related brain dysfunctions. In order to study multiple spatial navigation str...
متن کاملEgocentric versus Allocentric Spatial Memory in Behavioral Variant Frontotemporal Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease.
BACKGROUND Diagnosis of behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) can be challenging, in particular when patients present with significant memory problems, which can increase the chance of a misdiagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Growing evidence suggests spatial orientation is a reliable cognitive marker able to differentiate these two clinical syndromes. OBJECTIVE Assess the int...
