When environments are novel or large in scale, acquiring and using spatial information
proves to be difficult for way-finders. To ease problems associated with navigation …

We used a driving simulator to investigate landmark-based route navigation in young adults.
Previous research has examined how proximal and distal landmarks influence route …

Despite much recent interest, it is unclear which types of landmarks are best suited for
survey knowledge acquisition. Thus, we investigated the accuracy of survey knowledge after …

This study was designed to understand the effect of color coding on users' wayfinding
performance in complex buildings such as shopping malls. The experiment was conducted …

Abstract Background International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguards inspectors are
faced with the difficult task of learning the layout of complex nuclear facilities while being …

This study examined if spatial knowledge improved depending on where highlighted
landmarks were placed in a virtual city. We varied whether highlighted global landmarks …

Two experiments investigated how people develop different landmark knowledge at
decision points. Participants learned a route in a virtual city once or five times. One …

Viewing a filmed route offers an alternative to more expensive and rigid methods of learning
navigation skills. One advantage of film is the ability to enhance important landmarks or …
