Cue Interaction between Buildings and Street Configurations during Reorientation in Familiar and Unfamiliar Outdoor Environments
Download2017-07-24
Weimin Mou, Peter Dixon, Lin Wang
Two experiments investigated how people use buildings and street configurations to reorient in large-scale environments. In immersive virtual environments, participants learned objects’ locations in an intersection consisting of four streets. The objects’ locations were specified by two cues: a...

Disrupted Orientation After Path Integration by Absence of Anticipated Prevalent Spatial Views
Download2024-01-01
Two previous studies indicated that removing expected landmarks disrupts homing, a new phenomenon concerning the interplay between path integration and landmark-based navigation. This study systematically investigated when this disruption occurs, which spatial representations are disrupted, and...

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...

Hoteling Tsquare test power analyses and Bayes Factor
2024-07-20
This matlab code can be used to analyze multiple dimension data, two dimension data are used for example. We can do t test, power analysis, and calculate Bayes Factor based on t test.
