Effect of Room Size on Geometry and Features Cue Preference during Reorientation: Modulating Encoding Strength or Cue Weighting
Download2019-01-01
Three experiments investigated how the room size affects preferential use of geometric and non-geometric cues during reorientation inside a room. We hypothesized that room size may affect preferential use of geometric and non-geometric cues by affecting the encoding of the cues (the encoding...
