Humans are ultrasocial, yet, theories of cognition have often been occupied with the solitary
mind. Over the past decade, an increasing volume of work has revealed how individual …

The university campuses situated in metropolitan city centres have morphed into complex
environments due to congested layout and high-rise buildings. The environmental legibility …

Three experiments investigated the role of egocentric orientation in subsequent memory for
layouts learned via route (ground-level) and survey (aerial or overview) perspectives …

This chapter summarizes a new theory of spatial memory. According to the theory, when
people learn the locations of objects in a new environment, they interpret the spatial …

The chapter deals with a form of transient spatial representation referred to as a spatial
image. Like a percept, it is externalized, scaled to the environment, and can appear in any …

Understanding what another agent can see relates functionally to the understanding of what
they can do. We propose that spatial perspective taking and perceiving other's affordances …

Perspective-taking is a key component of social interactions. However, there is an ongoing
controversy about whether, when and how instances of spontaneous visuospatial …

The human hippocampal-entorhinal system is known to represent both spatial locations and
abstract concepts in memory in the form of allocentric cognitive maps. Using fMRI, we show …

Imagined spatial transformations of objects (eg, mental rotation) and the self (eg, perspective
taking) are psychologically dissociable. In mental rotation, the viewer transforms the location …

Little is known about how listeners use spatial perspective information to guide
comprehension. Perspective-taking abilities have been linked to executive function in both …
