Highlights•Human spatial navigation as involving three fundamental forms of
representations and strategies: allocentric, egocentric, and beacon.•How we navigate differs …

The possibility to induce a transient modulation of visuo-spatial attention boosted so far the
implementation of the prism adaptation in a variety of domains. This sensorimotor technique …

Rightward prism adaptation has been shown to ameliorate visuospatial biases in right brain-
damaged patients with neglect, and a single session of prism adaptation can lead to …

The basis for how we represent temporal intervals in memory remains unclear. One
proposal, the mental time line theory (MTL), posits that our representation of temporal …

In this study, we explored the time and space relationship according to two different spatial
codings, namely, the left/right extension and the reachability of stimulus along a near/far …

The nature-nurture debate regarding the origin of mental lines is fundamental for cognitive
neuroscience. We examined natural-nurture effects on the mental time line, applying three …

Neglect patients typically show a rightward attentional orienting bias and a strong
disengagement deficit, such that they are especially slow in responding to left-sided targets …

Previous studies provided evidence of an ascending left-to-right spatial representation of
time durations by using a technique affecting high levels of spatial cognition, ie prismatic …

Recent neuropsychological evidence put forward impaired ability in processing particular
aspects of time, such as Mental Time Travel (MTT), in brain damaged patients exhibiting a …

We reviewed literature to understand when a spatial map for time is available in the brain.
We carefully defined the concepts of metrical map of time and of conceptual representation …
